I grew up in a small village of Shantou and came to Singapore at the age of 15. Despite my effort in becoming a world citizen, I realized that I'm very much influenced by the Chinese identity. I wish to explore the world and get to interact with people from different backgrounds, to cast away all stereotypes and emphasise on personal stories and authentic feelings.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I have done some solo trips in the past, most of them in Couchsurfing. My family has also hosted a few CSers who visited Shantou. I met interesting peoples and became friends with some of them.

While sightseeing and trying new food could be the reasons of travelling, I do believe that interaction with locals is a fantastic way to know a place better, it also allows us to escape from the staged authenticity/constructive authenticity for the tourists.
