Hey guys, this is Sum from China. To be honest I' m not very outgoing, that is the reason why I wanna travel around the world and meet different people for changing my personality.

With the experience of travelling, I have traveled around 1/3 mainland of China, also I`ve been to Sri Lanka for one mouth to be a global volunteer which is fighted for local women. That is my first time to go abroad. I was scared about anything strange, thanks to my new friends I can feel the kindness from the unfamiliar environment.

After graduation from university, I had become a teacher in a senior high school. That means all my students are younger then me a little bit. Well, talking about my subject, it would be a little awkward, because I taught philosophy and some basic knowledge about our society. Most students feel bonring about that, that's why my class is enough quiet.= = It was a big challenge for me to hold them during the class, but I still enjoyed the time, after all they are young.

As a backpacker, I have already spent 1 year in Australia, especially in Melbourne, Tasmania and Brisbane, which must be curious and wonderful for me. Everything is new and different. What is waiting for me is not only challenge but infinite possibility.

Now I come back to Australia now as an overseas student in Flinders Uni in Adelaide. Hope to meet new friends in this strange city.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

It is really a nice way to find some friends of similar purpose and interests.And the same time I could have a choice to know more things about your country by your eyes.

Interessen

One of my 'odd' hobby during my trip is collecting sand from different beaches. That would be better if I can find some special colourful shells.
