About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Find true soul by traveling alone! Explore Europe now!

ABOUT ME

A girl with happy nature. Here is what has happened to me in the past 25 years:

I grew up in a small town in center China, it's a small place surrounded by hills and rivers, I used to run in the wild and climb up trees. (I always miss that stress-free little me.)

Well, as you might know, yes, I'm the only child in my family. So just as typical Asian parents, my family has very high expectation out of me. Luckily, I'm not that lazy and got into a nice University in China. It's located in the northeast China right by the sea. I spent most beautiful 4 years there, I started to love place with water(Lakes, rivers, sea, etc.).

After I finished my Bachelor study, I got an offer from one of the so-called BIG 4 accounting firm Deloitte and worked as an auditor for almost 3 years in its Beijing office. I resigned when I was promoted to Senior Auditor, cause I feel like it was time to see EUROPE, the continent I've always wanted to go.

So I prepared for everything I need, and now here I am, doing my master degree in finance in Germany.

PHILOSOPHY

Work hard, Play hard.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A friend in Beijing introduce me this.
At first, it's because I backpacked to Hong Kong and couldn't find a place to stay, and it turned out very fun and benefiting. Then I tried to CS at most places I went, because it's such a good way to know inspiring people!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Coming to Europe!

Teach, Learn, Share

I could speak fluent Chinese and English, I'm learning German. So if you are interested in language, we could do teaching and learning exchange.
I cook REAL Chinese food quite well, I'd say. I don't mind cooking or teaching you to cook some easy but good Chinese dishes during stay.
I have been to every provinces in China and few southeast Asian countries, first-handed tips could be provided. :)
In the end, since I worked as an finance consultant in a renowned company and now study finance, I could give you some finance and tax advice, if you need it. :D
