I am a retired university faculty member and my field of study is electronic engineering. I now live alone in Nanjing and my daughter is a high school student in Seattle.
I love traveling and making friends. I have been to all the provinces in China, my favorite is Tibet ,Xinjiang, Sichuan and Yunnan. The United States is the country I've been to the most times, I've traveled to many states many cities and many national parks, including Hawaii and Alaska!
I am a bird watching buff and a bird crash recording volunteer.
My family and I have had a wealth of experiences and I am happy to share my story with my friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My 16 year old daughter tells me to try new things so I can stay young.
The house I live in alone now is big enough and I have enough time to host new friends.
