About Me

I finally got my own place so it’s time to give back to the community!

Living in Mission in San Francisco. You can stay in my living room. I have a large couch.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I had a couchsurfing/hitchhiking trip on my sophomore year, in 2013. I set off from Beijing, and travelled all the way to Qingdao, Yangzhou, Shanghai, Lijiang, Chengdu and many other amazing cities in China in one and a half months. The trip was mind blowing, I made so many friends and had so much wonderful memory.

I still vividly remember my first host in Qingdao. He's in his thirties and loves adventures and traveling. Before I was about to leave his place, he asked me to join his boss's farewell party. It was a BBQ party by the beach. The sea was beautiful. The sunset was breath taking. I got to witness those people's real emotions as well.

That was certainly the best memories I've ever had. And that's what I like about couchsurfing - I can be part of the place I'm visiting and create my very own memories.

Also it's great to meet with all those amazing people from the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Marathon. The new challenge is to do triathlon.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Every amazing person I've met in my life. Every adventure I've gone through.
And provide a home when my hosts ever come to San Francisco/Silicon Valley.
The most important thing - I'm definitely not a freeloader. I can do some really nice Chinese cooking. I'm from an engineering background so I can help with a lot of electronic issues with your devices. What's more, I have so much time and stories to share with my hosts! To exchange experiences is the primary reason I'm on Couchsurfing!
