About Me

Hello! I’m a 26-year-old Chinese woman currently living in the US. I’m a PhD student in Economics working on health (mostly tobacco-related) policies.

I enjoy food, outdoors, movies, and photography. I can cook some Chinese food and take photos for you if you like!

In the past two years, I have roadtripped and camped all around the Great Lakes area, national parks like the Yellowstone, Grand Teton, Zion, Grand Canyon, Death Valley. Now it’s time for cities and museums! I’m having my solo Eurail trip this summer. I landed in Oslo Norway in May and started my journey there. Connecting with local people and other travelers is always the best part of travels. I look forward to exploring the city through you and with you!

Role model: RBG

Philosophy: Dare to fail.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like meeting between people from all over the world, to listen their stories, to make connections, to emphasize.
