About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Be Happy Healthy and maybe Wealthy!

ABOUT ME

I'm now work in Shenzhen China.

My friends conceive me weird in a good way. I'm really easy to get along with. Love meeting new people and hanging out.

Actually, I'm that kind of person who would spend whole day in remote areas or any park and do nothing but thinking and sometimes I'll bring my dog with me.

I'm enthusiastic about everything fun(only if it's llegal.) I've tried to roll down on the grass in a park once and accidentally bumped into a rock and had my backbone hurt but that was sooooooo fun! Don't get me wrong, I meant the rolling part was fun.

I can be really talkative or the opposite, depending on the occasion. Sometimes I talk to strangers for hours and hours at tea houses until midnight and in other times, I could just lie on the grass or sit in a cafe whole afternoon without saying a word just to relax.

PHILOSOPHY

Nothing's permanent but change.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Interests

Meeting people of course.

I love rolling on the grass in park. That is really fun and relexing believe it or not.

Listen to music.(but I spend most time at school and cram school so I don't have much chance to listen to music)

Play tennis. I'm a beginner but I love the feeling when my raquet hits the ball.

Hanging out with friends, I love chitty chatty.
