HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I have been to Spain, Portugal and Italy before. Now I want to go to Eastern Europe for a month and see something different. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE My experiences began as a host of a Maylasian traveler, whom I knew during the travelling in Italy. Until now I have surfed three couches, and all of them are really wonderful experiences. I have learned a lot from my hosts, especially about western food. OK, forgive me, I always eat more than enough. Anyway, I will continue my trip as a CSer.

I am a little addicted to novels, and most of the novels that I like are Chinese writers'. My favorite, of course is the most classical one, The dream of red mansions. I also like works of modern writers, such as Yan Mo, Pingwa Jia, Geling Yan, Shumin Bi, and Anyi Wang…… Oh, there are too many excellent Chinese writers. I also tried to read foreign novels, but far from enough, maybe it's because of the translation, or the difference of culture, unfortunately they cannot attract me too much. So it is with music.
