CURRENT MISSION

Learn from everyone!

ABOUT ME

I just graduated from college. Next fall, I'll start a Ph.D. program in physics. I wanted to take a year off of school to see more of the world and improve my Chinese. I took Chinese classes in Beijing this past summer. I'm working at the Wuhan Institute of Physics and Math (武汉数学与物力研究所), part of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (中国科学院) in Wuhan until the end of May.

PHILOSOPHY

Try to understand where other people are coming from.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Love to keep an open couch or extra bed, meet up with people passing through, hang out with others in the community.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

During undergrad, I had a nice time hosting people in Cambridge and in Boston. Now I'm happy to meet other couchsurfers in Wuhan!
