ABOUT ME
2023 Update: in Foshan, not in Shenzhen
Hello, everyone:) Finally back to China after 2 years in Australia and 15 months in New Zealand. I would love to meet up with new friends!
I'm full of passion and very independent, easy-going and very active. I do believe travelling is a very important part of life. I want to know more about different cultures in the world. Couchsurfing for me is not about free accomadation, but a travel style (or life style) to learn different cultures through meeting different people, it's about mutual trust and cultural interaction.
PHILOSOPHY
趁年轻,想做什么就马上行动,不要有顾忌!
