About Me

I'm a software developer, born and raised in Henan province which is famous for the old histroy(the first several dynasties were in Henan and ancient Chinese civilization originated from there), the population(most populus province in China), the martial art(Shaolin Kongfu and Shaolin monastery), and pollution(now it's even worse than Beijing). Cool! Isn't it? Like a mini-China in China.

Have worked and lived in many different cities in China, my last stop was Beijing. I have made many cool friends through couch surfing there and that has changed my life a lot. With the spirit of exploring the world, now I am working and studying in Tallinn.

I guess my backgroud and living experiences influenced me a lot. I can always learn something from different environments. Then I get addicted to watching, learning new things and making changes of my life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Through couchsurfing I have met many good friends in Beijing and my life has been changed a lot. I like the idea of offering free help for travelers.

I like meeting with people from different backgrounds. The more people I talk to, the better I know myself. I can not travel all over the world, but couchsurfers can bring the world to me.

Interests

Horseback riding,
history,
politics,
clubbing,
drinking,
watching movies,
reading...

These are some activies which can make me happy. If you really want my soul to get touched, prepare your stories and your opinions upon the live, the society, the humanty, the history.

Don't be afraid. I'm not as reflective as it seems to be. If you are party animals, we probably would be good friends.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Been to Tibet twice and hiked four days in the forest along Yarlung Tsangpo River(really close to death);

Lived one night for free in mosque during Ramadan time in Stockholm.
