My name is Russell. I live in Shanghai, China. My home is in Jiuting town, a place only about 20 minutes’ drive from Shanghai Hongqiao Railway Station and Hongqiao Airport.
I enjoy traveling, sports and making friends.

I often go on self-driving trips around Shanghai. And I’ve visited most parts of Shanghai, Zhejiang, Anhui and Jiangsu.
I like listening to friends share their stories. If you’re someone who likes to talk about your stories and experiences, I'll be so thrilled.

I like playing basketball, table tennis, frisbee, stand-up paddling, and cycling.
I’m also interested in astronomy, geography and history.
I also enjoy reading and occasionally join local book clubs in Shanghai to meet new friends.

I work as a software engineer at a foreign company.

I’m very familiar with Shanghai and Zhejiang.
And I’d be glad to share tips and guides about famous sights and travel in these areas.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to build deep connections with a more diverse group of people and experience the diversity of the world.
I also have many stories of my own to share.
