Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that I came to the world to meet people from different cultures and characters. I found Couchsurfing would help me to do what I would like to do such as meeting people from different places and have a coffee together while we are sharing our thoughts and beliefs!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Mmmm actually I don’t remember one special thing but I feel great when I take pictures! And I remember the day when I finished studying from the Library at 5:00 AM, I saw the sunrise was incredible. The library is far from my dorm just for 20 minutes but it took me 2 hours to arrive because I started taking photos and the sunrise was extremely incredible.. it charmed me!
