About Me

I am now studying German in Konstanz.

Like running a lot. have been running long distance for 20 years and ran ~14 marathons and lots of half-marathon and 10K in HK... starting from 2012, I finally execute my plan to run the world. I try to run a bit in every city I visit to see a different face of them... furthermore, I have started joining races in different places and started my first overseas in the Athens' Classic Marathon (the real original marathon!!!) and then also ran the Cherry Marathon in Gyeongju, Korea, Osaka Marathon, Paris Marathon, Berlin Marathon and so on.

But now, I am planning to try something new, running from one city to another instead of taking bus or riding bicycle but totally on foot. My first plan is running from West of Germany to the East of Germany...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet more friends, really knowing how the people lives there do and way to live...
Listen to the stories of the cities, the people living there. So that I could learn how the place/culture/people daily life/economy/business evolves.

Interests

Running, hiking and other outdoor activities too.
I like understanding how business works, analysing business models although I don't think I would doing my own business.
and recent years, I try to learn some history and politics.
I don't party much.
