Overview
About Me
I'm a full-time English teacher and part-time copywriter in China. I love my job and people around me. I seek for true beauty in my life and I can always find some. Dog person& animal lover. Love pine nuts and squirrels. I'm not a party animal but I love sharing with people and I am totally a dreamer thanks to my always rich imagination and creativity. My first couchsurfing trip is coming soon. Russia and Europe are the destinations. I'm anxious and excited. Start to put things on my 'To do list', including try vodka in Moscow and go to a concert in Vienna and much more. Pretty sure it's gonna be a life journey, because it's the first time I actually push myself out of the comfort zone. Life is full of surprises. I'm ready to go~
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Want to see the world before I die.
Finding free hotels is never the reason I couchsurf and it never will be. The world is big and I really want to share with people rather than just taking some selfies at some places and leaving.
