About Me

WHAT AM I DOING NOW
I quit my job again... on the career promotion to enjoy the world, people around me can't believe this. But that's my another dream, I am making it come true. I am so proud of myself.
This year, I would like to travel around Center & South America, hope can meet more friends, experience the world, and share some Chinese things to CSer.

My Chinese name is ZENG Guowei, you can call me Will as nickname (my family always call me like this) .

I am a simple guy who likes travelling, meeting new friends. It is so interesting to share the stories and experiences with others.
Anyway, enjoy the happy life everyday is the best.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am living in an apartment with two bedrooms. I thought it is so wasted for another room for a long time. One day, an idea came out, Maybe I can use it for couchsurfing, and It's enjoyable to meet new friends and share our trips, stories, cultures, etc. Welcome!
