Overview
About Me
I used to be a workholic and had been working in a fast pace environment for more than 20 years due to the fast economic development in China. I have been working in manufacturing field and had held senior management position for many years. Until recently, for many reasons, I gradually stoped working, and just do some ad hoc consulting jobs to selected customers. Since I have more spare time from 2023, I started to plan do some travelling around the world. In 2024, I will visit several provinces in China and I will accomplish visiting all provinces in China. I am planning to visit North and East Europe countries in July/August 2024. Will spend more time travelling within Canada in 2025 and spend more time travelling in U.S. in 2026.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I usually stay in hotels, motels, or hostels during my travel. I just recently noticed couchsurfing and I feel this is a very good way to meet locals while I am travelling and understand real local people's life and culture. That's why i am on Couchsuring.

Teach, Learn, Share
I want to learn Spanish because I would like visit south American countries in the future.
What I Can Share with Hosts
