Hey there! 👋
I'm a global nomad now based in the vibrant city of Chengdu, where my passion for travel and connecting with people drives my business in the luxury tourism industry.

Hosting Since 2014 🏠
I've been hosting travelers in my apartment in United States since 2014 (though my old account was on a break for a while). These experiences have shaped my approach to both work and personal life—always keeping it inclusive and globally minded, and of course my hospitality.

My Space 🏡
Located right in Chengdu's CBD, both of my apartments will be a cozy and safe haven for travelers looking to explore the city. Next to my home is the most spectacular lake park in Chengdu, I and my surfers always drive my car to the park for some great time and grabing some beers. I strive to create a laid-back, inclusive environment. Expect some warm and "spicy" Chengdu hospitality that makes your stay memorable.

A Few Preferences 😊
Respect for different cultures and religions 🌍
Respect some personal boundaries(Especially on special ocassion)
No pets or kids or couple, please
Ok with I am not driving you aronud
Be very polite to your host, clean your bed after stay.
People who want to be politically unfriendly to China, please turn away.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I love welcoming travelers to my cozy residence in Chengdu and showing them the real essence of this wonderful city and my hometown. I’m always happy to:

Share local cuisine and introduce you to the best spicy dishes
Drive you around if I’m available, making your exploration seamless and enjoyable

Entrepreneurial Journey & Personal Growth 🚀

I've been immersed in the startup world for 11 years, building and growing my business in the travel industry.Recently, I was diagnosed with a chronic condition (a immune system disease) that has reshaped my perspective on life. This has inspired me to travel the world more, seeking new experiences and connections while embracing each moment.

I am learning the massage now, maybe I can provide you a traditional Chinese oil spa if things went that way:))
