Hi, I'm a Chinese student currently finishing my master’s degree in London.
I used to work as a copywriter in Shanghai for several years, and I've been traveling as a backpacker for a decade. I'm about 51% introverted, but I love connecting with diverse cultures and lifestyles.
My friends would describe me as "easygoing," "sincere," "peaceful," and a "good companion," which helps me share good times with others.
Feel free to check out my LinkedIn or Instagram if you want to know more about me:

Have a great day!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am looking forward to having a special travelling experience and opportunity to get local insights.
I believe great people can also be a destination, so I prefer to spend time with interesting individuals rather than just roughly visit a place.
