About Me

First thing I have to clarify:

I live in Auckland, New Zealand now, not in USA. This is because the house I am staying at has not finished its driveway, so there is no official address registered yet. Can't update and verify my address with Couchsurfing now, Sorry.

CURRENT MISSION

Prosper and enjoy my life in New Zealand

ABOUT ME

I was born and grew up in Beijing until I was 22. I went to Boston, USA in 2011 for study in Master Degree in Leadership, stayed in America for four years, travelled all over and explored most of the American National Parks, returned China doing family business for one year, just moved to New Zealand for a new life in May, 2016.
I am very open-mined, optimistic, easy going, caring and humorous. I like making new friends, listen their life experience, and share my stories with them.

PHILOSOPHY

Helping others have a better life makes my life being better and more meaningful.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've tried the CS many times. All of them were awesome. Love this program! I have made many good friends through this site. I will use CS whenever I travel the next time, and host people when I return Beijing, China, coz I want to pay back to this nice community.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Me and my wife had a two month road trip across America covering the most of American National Parks starting from New York City to Los Angeles. The journey was also our move from the east coast to the west. Seeing so much natural and cultural beauty of this country, we learned so much from nature, from each other, and from everyone we encountered along the journey. This was truely a once-a-lifetime journey, and we were all inspired by it for the rest of our lives.
