I used to stay in Hunan. I wrote a long hiking guide about Zhangjiajie (10k+ words) and kept it here for a long time, so most photos in my album are about hiking in Zhangjiajie.

I’m currently staying in Xishuangbanna, Yunnan, and I rent a room here. My apartment is occupied most of the time, but occasionally I can share it with travelers. Please message me first to check availability.

If I’m not able to host, I’d still be happy to show you around Xishuangbanna, treat you to some local snacks, and help in any way I can. I try my best to support fellow travelers whenever possible.

As for the part about me

I Born Zhangjiajie(Avatar’s filming spot, the inspiration behind Hallelujah Mountains), studied journalism in university, and worked for several Chinese media outlets more than 8 years, during which time visited most Chinese cities.After leaving the media industry, explored China extensively by motorcycle and car, and in recent years has been living in both Changsha and Xiangxi
(My international travels were more than ten years ago, so I haven’t spoken English for quite a while. Please forgive my rusty English if you don’t speak Chinese.)
