I was a Volunteer teaching English at Long Dong University (yes it's real) in Xi Feng, Gansu. Now I am heading to New Zealand with my girlfriend on a work holiday visa. We are currently cycling around the South Island from Picton to Queenstown.

ABOUT ME

This is what I live by, Wanderlust: A desire to travel and learn about oneself.

It's been quite a long journey to where I am today. Much has been because I am blessed with the opportunities to travel around the world. It only recently occurred to me how traveling had such a huge impact on me and I want to continue it as much as possible!

PHILOSOPHY

I personally believe that inside every human is an internal thirst for traveling, exploring and discovering the unknown. Why not fulfill that thirst while you can?

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Was available hosting in China but no longer living there.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfed with an American/Chinese family in Hangzhou, One time in Paris and another time last minute on a couchsurfing road trip from Maryland to Tennessee. Good times.

兴趣

I am always looking to find a way to travel!

Want to know about other people's lives, cultures, motivations and beliefs. I just enjoy really in depth conversations about anything really! But let's leave politics on the side.

Love nature and many outdoor activities. Rather be outdoors but also enjoy the comforts of the indoors!
