About Me

I am a third-year college student, studying Actuarial Mathematics in Worcester Polytechnic Institute. I was born in China, and lived there for 14 years. I moved to San Francisco, California for high school when I was 14, then I moved east to Worcester, Massachusetts for college. During my time in the US, I have visited more than 20 states within US and visited Canada and Mexico multiple times during my breaks. I always love to meet people from all over world, and learn about their culture, as well as teaching than about my culture. I am also always down to try something new, which is why I love traveling so much, and it is always great to meet make some new friends along the way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

During my trips, I usually learned more about a new place and new culture from those who lives there. They always knows what are the things that I shouldn’t miss out, and what are the places that locals would go instead of only the tourists. Also, I had became good friends and kept contact with all the people I stayed with from CS. Lastly, CS had proved to me that most of the people in this world are good people, because we are always doing our best to assist the ones who is in need through CS.
