Hiiiii ya! I am Chenchen from China. I am an exchange student in U.K. at the moment. I've been to 5 countries so far. I love to learn about cultures and languages. I like to chat about meaningful thoughts. Besides, I am a pretty chill person who enjoys cafe and pub. My travel vibe is taking my time, chatting with locals and enjoying the moment.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
As a person who grew up in a super tourism city in China, I always feel a pity that most tourists often miss out those real local-like restaurants and hidden beauties. So I personally like to show travelers my hometown as a local and travel with locals. Atm my life is still unstable so I doing more surfing but I will definitely try to host later on. Let-the-world-visit-you spirit hahaha. I like to meet interesting ppl and i believe it is always the ppl you spend time with plus the nice view makes a good trip/memory. So here I am, super pumped to meet you!
Music, Movies, and Books
My favorite musician is Lijian. His 美若黎明 is pretty chilling. But basically, I am into many kinds of music. I read every day and trying to manage to read one book in two days. I really like the movie and the book, Callmebyyourname. I like how the professors' families host friends, academics etc from different places and chat about literature/culture/history...all those beautiful knowledge together. I hope I will be able to live a life surrounded by ppl full of meaningful thoughts. I just finish the book called How to be fucking awesome. It teaches 11 key traits one should have to be a successful entrepreneur. I highly recommend it and I think it's suitable for everyone who wanna be successful. I also like Keigo Higashino‘s novel, poetry books, and some financial readings.
