Hey! This is Zilin from Shanghai. I am working in the ancient art museum, making exhibitions on all kinds of civilizations happen. I enjoy solo traveling for years, and during the journeys I tend to build connections with the locals and research the vicissitudes of that region. I enjoy reading non-fiction books a lot! Most of the time I am an introvert but I will be talkative when discussing abstract concepts/ controversial topics. ⚠️ I only host females. Please send the request to stay for no more than three nights. ⚠️ I care about keeping my place clean, tidy, and organized. ⚠️On weekdays I work. Mostly I don’t hang out with my guests. ⚠️ I am an introvert and my social battery is low.

Born and raised in Hong Kong , and have been working in Shanghai, China, since July 2011. I have spent most of my life in Asian urban cities. I am a free spirit, open-minded, respectful woman, and always curious to learn. I enjoy singing and various kinds of random music… I love to have a good conversation about anything and everything and explore new things, places and faces. Other CSers describe me as authentic, restless, generous, spontaneous, adventurous, and curious. p.s. I am a pet lover too. p.p.s I am a hasher from the Hash House Harriers (the drinking club with the running problem) PHILOSOPHY Always expecting the unexpected. I do not entertain requests without addressing my name. It’s one of the particular things for me choosing who to host. Thank you for your understanding. Avocado.

Hi,I’m Yang,a native Shanghainese. By profession, I compose music for stage plays and film/television productions, and I’m also an electronic music producer. I love playing modular synthesizers. I also enjoy taking photos in my daily life. Sometimes I shoot stage plays, and other times I take photos for my actor and singer friends. I also love street photography and landscape photography. I’m calm at times, and rock ‘n’ roll at others.I have a passion for all forms of art, as well as literature, philosophy and sociology. I have an open mind and respect all religions and cultures. I love communicating with friends from different backgrounds, and I’m deeply fond of traveling—there’s nothing I enjoy more than experiencing various lifestyles and cultures around the world. I’m looking forward to becoming friends with you!​And it would be even more fun if we could collaborate on some creative projects together!

Working and living in Shanghai, signed up in 2010 and now came back to fully embrace it, feeling like exploring this by hosting first and hope to travel and meet people the same way. I believe people make everything more interesting, travel is 2 times better when you meet and interact with people and the culture and soul they represent. Love food, culture, hikes, outdoors etc, still finding out what I would love to do the most for the rest of my life, exploration is never ending
