ABOUT ME

I'm a painter and musician. I'm really open and love meeting new people, sharing experiences, and having a laugh.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I found out about CS when I moved to Guilin in Jan. 08. My roommate was on CS, so we hosted many people at our flat. She left Guilin 6 months later and ever since, I've been hosting in my new flat with my boyfriend and my dog : ) It has been an amazing way to meet new people and share new experiences, while also helping travelers find their way around the city. p.s. (My boyfriend loves to cook for CS's! Delicious home-made chinese food.. mmm mmmm good! )

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once I went scuba diving and got to pet a moray eel.. I went canyoning in Switzerland, which involved going face first into rapids with no raft!.. Caving in Budapest was amazing, and partying in Ibiza was spectacular!
