About Me

ABOUT Ivy, yes it's ME
I was born and brought up in SH, a local Shanghainese. Now I am a graduate student major in Social Work in Fudan University, which located in the northeast part of SH. I love FUDAN! My home is in suburb, 2 hours away from my university. (Yes Shanghai is a large city with a large population of 25 million. ) If you’re interested and free, I can show you around. I know the best bakeries here and some interesting places. I love architecture, watching movies, music and exploring this city. Now I have an internship job in a small startup company, developing travel routes abroad. So I’d really appreciate if you can share some local suggestions with me, if you have. Uh, want to know more? why not find out by yourself? Lol

Updates, now I'm preparing for graduate essay and for hunting job. So not too much time to hangout, but we can meet and have a drink or dinner together;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have hosted and been hosted, not many times, but every time was a good experience and brought me some thinking. I love travelling, and I find out during trip, the people there left me most impressions. My good memories are mostly from the interactions with them. So I think staying and communicating with local probably is the best way to know the real destination. Besides, now I’m a poor student with limit money to explore the world, so I think being a host is a good way to know people beyond china. To let others know a real china and to know the real world. That’s why I’m on couchsurfing.

Interests

A lot. but i have to say, couch surfer can't be accessed easily due to Chinese SLOW net speed. I've written these parts again and again, only to find it's not saved.

I love architecture, fashion design, photography, ads, watching movies, painting, cycling, traveling of course and exploring this city and so on.
It cant be better if you are from advertising, architecture or fashion design industry lol.

Besides, I love learning foreign language.
