I am a Chinese girl interested in art, handcrafts, visiting historical sites and various museums. I like travelling to any place that I have never been to. I also love to communicate with different people.
I am a PhD student in China since 2018 researching on
Ancient Textile Materials and Technology. I stayed in South Korea for 6 months in 2021 and Denmark for 12 months in 2023, both for doing research as a visiting PhD student.
I used to host female travellers when I was in Denmark but I have been back to China since Jan 2024.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I planned to try couchsurfing for my own travel during my visit in Denmark. After moving into my tiny studio I found one more mattress then this idea came up that I could host others too. I have been under similar situation so I understand what most female travellers would worry about and how many problems they might meet when they are using couchsurfing and looking for a host.
As I have only one small room I can host only one female. I hope I could help people especially young girls travelling alone to Copenhagen without enough budget. And I wish you could pay me back with your smile, respect, possible skills teaching or interesting stories:)

Living in Europe for half a year, I met travellers from different countries and locals in different countries I visited. My lifestyle and worldview changed a little.
I used to travel alone to see this world, mostly heritage from the past and static sceneries on the road, which helped me understand this planet I am living on. After visiting a lot of cities and sites and reading a lot of histories, I have gained some knowledge and lost interests in most of tourist sites or city views. I prefer to walk in each place and get to know people, especially local people with their real lives.

My preference of visiting historical places or museums helped me understand human history. Meeting different people from different corners helped me know about the contemporary world.
