About Me

ABOUT ME
Hi there, my name is Yang Jing, currently working in Northern part of France.

My Philosophy:
"The limits of my language mean the limits of my world"
L. J. J. Wittgenstein

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been in France for a long time, my mission is to help the local students learn more about Chinese language (Mandarin) and culture. Proudly, many of them got their opportunity to continue their study in China. So I know how culture exchanges help people know each other better. I think couchsurfing is a platform for cultural exchange as well, and that's the reason I choose to participate.

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach Chinese (Mandarin), I know how different how this language can be to my French fellows. What make me really happy is that many of them have shared their fond of this language after several months' learning. My advice: never hesitate to express yourself in other languages, because it's an adventure when you speak, always something new to explore!
