🫶update: I work in Both Tanzania and Beijing, so maybe I am not here when you apply
***First thing first:
-I reject copy & paste requests, like a big NO.
-Plz read "my home" section before you apply, because my living condition is limited now.
-Though my references are all positive (for now, I will update), but I am not for everyone and one couchsurfer blocked me everywhere before, so please read my profile to make sure you really want to stay with me.

***About me:
-Born and rasied in China, has been living in Beijing for 7 yrs and still counting.
-New employess shifting between Beijing, Africa and Europe, lived in the Netherlands for 4 months, and still exploring possbilities.
-Into music (Latino, Afro and Chinese ballad), zumba, photography, movie, series and hanging out.
-weird but I find myself vibe more with old souls
-🌈lgbt friendly, you will feel safe and connected here, I hope:)
-ins@elias_anywhere if u are curious about more.

***Why I host:(also in next section)
-Had wonderful connections here before and made some real friends, now I wanna give back to this community.
-This community helps break the boundaries of existing ones, giving me inspirations. Most importantly, the ouncept "community" gives me a sense of safety and belonging.
-I wanna invite peope to feel the vibe and the pulse of the city with me.

***What can I offer:
-A small but cozy couch of course.
-Recommendation on bubble tea, burger, dumpling and bar .(I do know a lot)
-Various zumba options in Beijing.
-Beijng tourism suggestions.
-Ears for your stories

***What do I expect of you:
-See couchsurfing as a COMMUNITY rather than a free hotel. (I applied too so I can tell)
-Be open and respectful, not only to what you always accept, but also to what you don't like and understand.
-No obligation to share things, the most important thing is to feel comfortable and free.

***Last but not least
Have a nice day;)

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Beijing is a city that is "happening" of which I would love you invite you to feel the pulse, not to mention China is a even vigger complexty.
——————————
I had amazing experiences on couchsurfing during my Europe stay and truly inspired by the people I met. So I am more than willing to host now that I am available, by which I could pass the torch in this community.
——————————
The world is a cluster of communities, and the meaning of community is to break the boudaries of existing ones. Being a member of couchsurfing offers me a chance to build new connections and break community into individuals and feel the connections
——————————
Couchsurfing for me is a place where I could escape from tourist attractions by connecting to the local people.
Also I could experience different lives easily which I might don't have courage and opportunity to do.
