ABOUT ME

I am Aiden (Xiquan Gong), 24, male, grew up in China.

I worked for a newspaper as an editor once after graduation and currently staying in New Zealand working and travelling. It had always been my luck to meet you and I am eager to listen to your stories on the way and share mine.

-------------------------------------------------

I'm usually an "early bird," and live quite simple life. Speaking other languages and meeting people are cool and fantastic.

I am glad to offer some easy help while surfing, such as gardening, painting, housekeeping, kitchen and outdoor works.

-----------------------------------------------

I finished my last job in Christchurch 08 Jun and started travelling. Working, helpX and Wooofing, there are ways to discover a place but I prefer couchsurfing. Should be interesting and helpful.

PHILOSOPHY

Never say never, always say maybe.

There are no strangers, only friends I haven't yet met.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Caught a cobra with my father right in front of my house.

It was my first time seeing living cobra, but I have to say it was really exciting! We set it free eventually because we didn't know what to do with it.

Teach, Learn, Share

Willing to share with you Chinese food cooking, and Chinese language and culture of course.

For I am quit familiar with digital gadgets (phone, camera, laptop, application etc.) if you have difficulties picking or using them, I would be glad to help.

I guess I may learn your language and get to know classical kiwi lifestyle, Maori culture, and ready to hear your stories on the way.

Let's share the travel together.
