Hi everyone! My name is Bing.

I started being vegetarian on 6 January, 2014. I'm an atheist, but like reading about different ideologies and beliefs. I still eat egg and drink milk, but don't eat meat. I founded a vegetarian club in Guangzhou in 2015 with my friends and organise meetings at different vegetarian restaurants twice a month. Now I'm living in Shenzhen and would like to meet more friends here.

Interests

I'm a big fan of history, especially Chinese and Thai history. I like reading about the history of every city I visit. I think knowing the background of a city will make you enjoy your visit more than just knowing its name.

I've been to 10 cities in Guangdong, Zhongshan the latest.

Now I'm the most interested in the tech industry. Do let me know if you know any events about this.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Biking across a bridge over Chao Praya river from Rattanakosin island to Thonburi during last August. On that moment I realised how terrible and dangerous the traffic condition in Bangkok is. It made me forgot all the memorable bridge crossing experience in my life!

What I Can Share with Hosts

For guests: I'm still not convenient hosting anyone, but if you're interested in vegetarian or vegan food in Bangkok, it will be my pleasure to meet you.

For hosts: Please let me cook some Chinese and Thai vegetarian food to you, or at least let me pay for our dinner when eating out. I also have a habit of packing some exotic souvenirs from Thailand with me to share with my hosts, as I think cultural exchange is very important. And have I mention about cleaning dishes?
