About Me

I am a damned laid back, open-minded, curious and sporty young man. I come here not (only) for some place to stay during my trips, but most importantly, learn from each one of you ;) Ask me anything you wanna know about me if you are curious.
Sorry for not uploading many of my photos for my trips and other things done in Hong Kong, coz I'm just too lazy to wrap things up, plus I was too poor to afford a camera to get decent photos ;(

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet up locals to enrich my life and break every bias and stereotype. By just doing a trip over those scenic spots won't tell you much about how the locals think and live. In another way round, I can also tell people about how my home, my country, and my region is going. I believe in the value of dialogue and mutual understanding in both personal and national level.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling in southeastern Europe to meet the byzantine and ottoman culture, yugoslavian history and scenic beauty, meet local people and fellow travellers. It's bittersweet. But at the end, I have been drawing so much from the spirituality, vision and personal growth got during the trip!

Teach, Learn, Share

There is nothing called "teach" and "learn". We just share our lives and everything we know. But I can talk quite a bit about my view on Chinese culture ,history and politics. Also, I may share my appetite for beer, wine, spirit, food and music. Maybe we can also talk about playing guitar and cooking. Living and travelling experience is the single most important thing!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Chinese Tea, My thought and experience, Cleaning, Cooking...whatever!
