Overview
About Me
Born and raised in China, educated in Canada and now moving to London, UK for a cool tech job.
I’m a product designer who enjoys finding and solving problems.
When I’m not working, I found my biggest passion in photography/artbook publishing.
I move to a new city every 4 months for school/internship. What drives me to always get out of my comfort zone is my strong curiosity. I am eager to explore new things, no matter by traveling, studying or working
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I cherish every person I meet, every story I hear and every chance I can learn something new. CS is a great platform for that
