Overview
About Me
Traveling again now, after 7-year disappearance from Couchsurfing.
Just finished 1-year adventure in Southeast Asia, 3 months in Japan and US. First time visiting the South America, excited to explore different cultures in this continent.
I like adventures, hiking in the nature, arts, almost all types of sports and getting lost / wandering around without purpose. Also a beginner Argentina tango dancer 💃🏽
Apart from being a world traveler, I am a meditator exploring the world within spontaneously. I enjoy my life now in slower motion with more awareness, or sometimes, just letting time pass and do nothing.
No alcohol or 🧋:)

2017
I am a law student studying international law. My nationality is Chinese, but I prefer to consider myself a global citizen.
I like travelling, adventures and photography. Taking photos used to be a major activity when I was travelling. Now I am in the process of balancing, as I tried to see and experience more.
I am an animal lover, pescetarian and environmentalist. I love animals, love the nature.
Or I am just a common person like everyone else. A curious kid who is excited to explore the world. Life is short, experience and make things happen.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Cultural exchange is definitely one of the best experiences.
I enjoy meeting people with different values and ways of living, curious to experience different cultures.
I have been meeting many beautiful human beings with pure hearts, and many of whom became my good friends.
I also get to know more about myself.

Music, Movies, and Books
Books - meditation, spirituality, death, literature, philosophy, poems, politics and law.
The Little Prince: An old lover. What is essential is invisible to the eye. It always reminds me of the philosophy and beauty of simplicity, to go back to the basics.
Stories of Sahara: the book that inspires and encourages me to go for adventures, gives me the courage to step out my comfort zone.
Legitimacy and legality of International law: The new lover.
I started to enjoy the beauty of rational thinking and learned to see wicked problems of the world from another angle.
What is law, eventually?
Movies / documentaries
Started to love documentaries more in recent years (I’m getting older;), especially after becoming addicted to diving.
Amélie: « …if you let this chance pass, eventually, your heart will become as dry as my skeleton. »
Eat Pray Love: first time watched when I was 16, inspired me to start solo travelling from 18;
Midnuit a Paris, To Kill a Mockingbird, Philadelphia, 12 angry men...call me by your name, la graine et le mulet etc…
