Hello Hannes and Ting here!
We are a couple with Chinese and German background, we both lived in Brisbane Australia between 2009 and 2016 and we met each other in 2014. We started our world travel in May 2016 and we are excited to explore the world at our own pace, meet interesting people along the way, collect unforgetable memories, learn as many things as possible. We wish to transform our existence through meaningful travels, get to know the world without the interferance of mass media, interact with people from all backgrounds with respect, openness, warmth, generosity and authenticity.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

We are on Couchsurfing because
- we want to meet locals
- we want to learn from people from all walks of life
- we want to share our passions
- we want to connect with like minded people
- we want to experience the generosity from strangers
We also would love to host travellers when we have a physical home again.
