About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel to each of China's 33 provinces

ABOUT ME

Montreal is and always will be home but I moved to china for a year.... almost ten years ago! I fell in love with this country and i don't know when I'll go back. I've lived 6 years in small towns in Zhejiang province, loved it there. I never thought i could live in Shanghai but i love it. Had to move here for work and it's been a great experience so far. It's been 2.5 years in Shanghai already and i'm still discovering it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I joined CS before moving to Shanghai 2 and a half years ago and i've hosted a few people since. Haven't surfed yet. I enjoy meeting fellow CSers at various meetings in and around Shanghai and i'll organize a couple... eventually!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It's been great. The shanghai CS community is very active and helped me make Shanghai feel like my home.
