About Me

My partner Cheng and I are living in Australia 🇦🇺 , we are originally from the warm and humid southern part of China 🇨🇳 , known for its delicious food and bustling business scene.

During my student days, I focused on studying "communication" and after graduation, I worked in digital marketing for three years. I love Digital🧡

In my free time, I enjoy exploring new things in the city, hiking with friends, playing with cats, staying updated on current affairs and technology news, planning future travel adventures, gaming, and using some new decoration ideas to keeping home tidy, cozy & fun.

👩‍❤️‍👨 When my partner and I have long breaks, we love to travel and explore new regions. We've already visited places like New Zealand, Hawaii, Japan, and driven the entire east and west coasts of Australia.

✔️July 26, 2024 - August 1, 2024: Road trip across the whole Australia which over 4000km (Sydney-Perth)

✔️August 1, 2024 - August 5, 2024: Perth, Australia

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

😊Meeting people and cultures from around the world through Couchsurfing will give us the opportunity to get to know each other authentically, to break free of the constraints imposed on us by modern media, as well as to broaden the boundaries of our perceptions. Most importantly, to have a friendship🫂, even if the time together is short.

Music, Movies, and Books

🎵Music: Enjoy songs of various styles and languages, for example, the “Jia Bin” (means “Guest”) in Cantonese, the “Wan Wu Bu Ru Ni” (means “Nothing compares to you”) in Mandarin, the “ごくらくじょうど” (means “Pure Land of Ultimate Bliss “) in Japanese, and English songs like “Don”t” by Ed Sheeran & “50 ways to say goodbye” by Train & “Redbone” by Childish Gambino. Feel free to introduce songs in the languages you use :)

🎬Movies: Harry Potter/Lord of the Rings/The Chronicles of Narnia/Journey to the Center of the Earth. Science fiction and adventure types are my favorites, these can help me break through the limits of reality and imagination.

📕Books: Geography related books, “Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea” by Jules Verne, “Pinocchio” by Carlo Collodi, “Battle Through the Heavens” by Tiancan Tudou.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We drove the car to across the whole land of Australia which was over 4000km, and chatted with local aboriginal people.
