PHILOSOPHY

Living is Learning and learning is Living.

Try to see things from the other person's point of view. Any fool can criticize, condemn, and complain and most fools do.

The more you study and experience, the more you realise how little you actually know. It's humbling to realise your own ignorance. But it is also a motivation to learn more

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As of now, I am overseas so I don't have a couch for you to crash :(. However, I will return in September and may have a couch for you to crash.

Even though I am busy I would be more than happy to show you around Adelaide. Show the very beautiful places that you can find in and around the city.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I first heard about couch surfing from a friend while i was getting advice about one of my destinations. Anyway this is my first time with couch surf, I recently joined a few days ago.
