I am a fun, compassionate, occasionally sarcastic.

I used to travel a lot, but now settled down to co-raise a mini human being and a carnivore (a cat in her essence) with my partner.

Oh I live in Xi’an. My apartment is located in the southern suburb of the city, on average 1 hour by subway from most of the tourist sites (excluding Terra Cotta Warriors which is 3-4 hours away).

For travelers who plan to pop in and out of the city, I’d recommend hotels and hostels at downtown.

For "idlers" who happen to want to meet people and share stories, I’d say, "welcome!"

I got a spare bedroom with a pullout bed good for two. And most of time I can only host during weekends.

An ideal couchsurfer for me would be someone genuine, interesting, polite, and kind to kids and animals. We can talk, share meals and explore the city together.
