I am from the Province of Henan in the central part of China. I finished my study on viticulture and enology in France in 2017 and worked in a winery in the Tibetan area in the Yunnan Province in South China for the past months. For me travelling is truly and undeniably a good way to change the routine mind and take in some fresh air into the mind. In my own eyes, I am quiet, calm, emotional, sometimes crazy, conserved, adventurous, brave, coward, lazy, diligent, interesting, boring, talkative, ... etc. Complex, eh? That's me, 30 years old, a traditional but not typical Chinese young man. I hope to make friends with people from different cultures, and make my mind fresh.

May everyone have interesting experiences on the way. Cheers!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

1, to make travelling easier and happier
2, to make the travel a real travel

The fantastic point about couchsurfing is the moment when two strangers of us meet together like old friends. It is really warm and interesting talking and sharing experiences from farmost corners of the world. The host can experience cultural journeys into a distant country even staying in his own place, while the traveler can see and touch how local people live.

Interests

Playing chess, reading, jogging, hiking, mountaineering, fishing, playing badminton.

When having enough time, I enjoy a lot hitchhiking. That kind of feeling is amazing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Jumping from a bridge into the river after maybe 20 minutes' struggling standing on the edge of the bridge.

Trekking Routeburn Track from 9 am until 11 pm, I had chances for stopping and stay in the camping hut for the night, but I chose to continue until arriving at the camping ground at the end of the track. During the track I used two carrots as chopsticks to eat boiled instant noodles. After finishing the track, I hitchhiked for 300 kms, a whole day, to go back to the entry of Routeburn National Park to get my car. From Glenorchy, I rented a bike to ride for 40 km to the Park. Entering the valley the strong wind made me to give up the bike. I left it in the grass by the road and walked for the last 5 km to the Park. On the road, being very thirsty, I dipped my mouth into the brook and enjoyed the water. Getting back my car, I stuffed my mouth with pieces of onion and sugar. Only that moment I felt, water and food is crucial for life. And that was the Chinese New Year's Eve. Harsh, but looking back, I feel so impressive. I am not a fans of masochism, but I appreciate to have this experience being faced with the harshness.
