I am currently a research fellow from Harvard University staying in Paris for one year. I love hiking, painting, and eating macarons. My research is on Chinese immigrant art in Paris in the 1920s and today.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I would like to meet new people in my travels and find out more about the places I'm staying in from the locals!

I really value learning about the history and culture of the places that I visit instead of just hitting all the tourist spots and I think the best way to do that is to talk to locals!
