About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel and Learn. Experience the world

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Sichuan, China, the province famous for spicy food and panda. Moved to England when I was 16 and lived there for 7 years until I finished graduate school last year and decided to take a year off to do some travelling.

I'm always up for new adventures and meeting people from different parts of the world to know about their cultures. I love travelling and trying all the yummy local food.

PHILOSOPHY

Living life to the fullest.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used to host when I had a house in York. Unfortunately I can't host at the moment as I'm travelling, but I'd love to meet interesting CSers and share our life stories.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I started Couchsurfing when I was backpacking around Indonesia in 2010 and I met lots of amazing people during the trip.

After my Indo trip, I started hosting travellers in York, and have met some of the most awesome people.

Interests

I love all kinds of outdoor activities. Hiking on a sunny day,swimming in the ocean,scuba diving, surfing and travelling.

I'm a huge foodie so I love cooking and experimenting with new recipes.

I just started learning Salsa,Bachata, and I'm loving it.
