Overview
About Me
Born in Chengdu, southwest of China, now living in Peking for my university study during most of the year. A girl who is keen on exploring the world, traveling with friends and also travel alone. I am easygoing but not super talkative. However, I am always delighted to make friends from different countries. I enjoy chatting with people and sharing our views and experience, discussing on various topics about culture, lifestyle and food etc.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Deeply believe that interacting with local people and stepping into their culture are the most essential things when traveling, which turns a trip becoming unforgettable and meaningful.I would like to explore and understand a city or country through the perspective of local people.
