CURRENT MISSION

Cherish what I already got

ABOUT ME

I was born and raisd in Hangzhou,an incredibly beautiful city in China. :) One year in Japan as an exchange student. Completed master's degree in the States, and currently I am working in NYC.

Traveling is my constant and sincere interest coz it offers me the opportunity to encounter all the beautiful things and people. Being spontaneous and flexible, I always enjoy traveling alone.
When I grow really old, I hope I could say with no regret that I have been grateful and dynamic all my life.

Life is short, live it up.

PHILOSOPHY
Go with the flow.
Respect the difference.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Cannot remember very clearly since it was really long time ago. My vague memory told me that was after I read an article introducing CS on a magazine and felt a sudden rush to join it~

I started my first CS experience in Tokyo, Japan. Since then, I fell in love with the fantastic way of travelling. It always makes me excited and motivated coz I know I am going to meet amazing people and discover beautiful things.

HOSTING EXPERIENCE

Besides, I showed several CSers around Nagoya, Japan, Beijing, China. And back in my hometown Hangzhou, I hosted some foreign friends (we didn't meet via CS but it was similar experience), from which I learned the true meaning of being a good host. I really like meeting up with CSers and get inspired by their spirits.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Too many to count.
-Dancing in the centre of the barracuda tornado underseas in Sabah,Malaysia. Almost moved to tears.
-Volunteering at an orphange in Kathmandu, Nepal. A little boys kept performing magic and showing me highly difficult yoga poses^_^
-Cooking Chinese dishes in a community restaurant in Lisbon, Portugal. It was a open kitchen where nearly all guests invited came by and asked numerous questions about Chinese food, which made me feel like a real chef :)
