I’m Cheng from Shanghai, China. I’ve lived in a small city in Germany as a student for 10 years and recently moved in with my boyfriend in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Currently we provide a couch/bed in our flat for surfers which is located in Amsterdam West, near Westerpark.

During my student time I traveled most neighboring countries of Germany, all the wine regions in southwestern Germany and of course in Alsace as well.

For vacation I would prefer mountains over beaches, and I’m absolutely hooked for a hike on the Alps or a road trip through mountain passes in Swiss, Austria, France and Italy.
