Hi friends from all over the world!

I grew up in Beijing and i'm now living in San Francisco for my study, before this, I lived in Nottingham, England for 5 years. I'm studying social sciences at Minerva University, a university that travels around the globe(we live in SF, Tokyo, Buenos Aires and Berlin for 1 year each!)
I had the privilege to start solo backpacking at the age of 16 and this has been the best decision I've ever made.
Travel literally broadened my horizon. I've met soooo many interesting and lovely humanbeings.
I'm a huge culture enthusiast, you can literally find me at any culture festival in town haha! I love food, dance, music, rituals and traditions and so many more!

I also worked as a documentary photographer for 2 years and at museums delivering art workshops.
Besides, I ran marathons and love bouldering, trekking, camping and everything outdoor!

***For those who wants to send me a couch request:
I prefer hosting solo female travelers but drop me a message if you have good references!
I live with my grandparents and younger siblings so if you don’t like old people or kid this is not the place for you haha
And read My Home section, it explains everything:)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

i jumped on the back of a moroccan guy's scooter after chatting with him for 3 min and went to his house. Met his amazing families who treated me as their own daughter and ended up living with them for a week during ramadan, fasting and cooking together. We formed such a strong bond in this short time and i still call them each month!
