Overview
About Me
An amateur researcher for cultural anthropology. Spend almost all my life in China before I graduated. Finally I decide to escape from lineal life and mediocrity and to chase freedom. As a human being, I am curious about how people live at the other side of the world. Super enthusiastic about language, culture, football, beer!
And I believe a brief bio cannot describe a soul😃 I could be talkative if you are also
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Tired of being a random tourist, I want to experience the local folklife, hear from the normal people, and try to understand and think like them. Passing through the area without trying to know its core and soul is a big disrespect!
And try to help the disoriented travellers in China for this unique big country! HMU if you want to know how to survive during the trip in China!
Empathy and reciprocity!
