About Me

I am open minded, easy going and respectful person who loves hiking, cycling, yoga and cooking, I also love cat and dog, I currently have 2 beautiful nice cats.

I was living in China for so many year, and moved to Canada with my husband last year 2015, life is about taking challenge and adventure, Living in another country wheres culture is totally different with China, sometimes feel culture shocked, but that is what I like about, learning different thing from different people and culture makes life so interesting.

I was doing charity in China, and now I am doing my own online food project, I love to share my food recipes, sharing makes the world better.

I love meeting and talking to different people, listen their story and life experience, helps me open eye to the world

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I know about couchsurfing from my friends Rob, listened all his experience, I felt its amazing, so I joined in, but Shame, I never had chance to offer and share my place, I would love to do so in the future.

I believe its amazing thing we have chance to share love, share care, share all good things with people.

Interests

I love yoga, I started it 5 month ago, I always wanted to do, but job kept me so busy, now I finally do every morning, I especially like ashtanga

I love cycling in China, enjoyed so much, sometimes cycling to very far with friends, like 120km or 150km in one day, never want stop! I remember I attended a cycling activity, had to finish 315km in 24 hours, I was so close to finish it, after 10 hours cycling 270km, my knee got very bad pain and swollened, I had to stop! Because of cycling, I also broke my foot, that was me being stupid and tried to show off, rided down stair and fell over, well, I felt bad about it, but still it never stop me loving cycling, just need to be more careful:-)

About hiking, I went hiking every year, in China, there are many wonderful place to hike, like Yunnan province, Tibet, Xinjiang, Sichuan, Anhui, Amazing beautiful nature mountain! Even Camera cant record its beauty. I just feel so good to close to nature.

I love cooking too, I always invited my friends to my apt to have dinner party, share my cook, since I moved out of China, so I started to do my own project, sharing recipes online, more people can cook their own.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love music, I like to listen music to relax myself, usually country ,pop, classic music or light music

War movie is my favorite, I watched many many movies about war, cherish more peace.

I love the book "A brief history of humankind" great book!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think its the last two year, my job made my life so meaningful, I was doing charity in foundation, I had chance to do a great project for education and autistic. I personally did fundraising for autistic and poor student education by my cook and cycling, that was really amazing.
