As a college English teacher as well as a yoga teacher, I really enjoy my working and love my students. They make me young and updated!

currently, I'm living in Tianjin, which is a costal city close to Beijing.

As a great fan of language learning, I'm eager to know people from different corners of the world as well as their cultures, to me, getting to know something new is like opening a new life page, fun, fascinating and also challenging.

Enthusiastic, open-minded, fun and friendly. I got many foreign friends, some of them are my guests, we became good friends after several days hosting, one of my guests told me that I'm quite a friend material, haha, I guess I am!

Right now, I can speak Chinese and English fluently and a little French.

I'm a cat lover, I used to keep two cats at home, they are soo cute and incredibly lovable, but now they are in my friend’s home cuz I am not available to keep them due to my tight working schedule!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like making friends with people from different countries, but most importantly, I am willing to make your days in China, especially in Tianjin much easier, Coz as a traveler, i hope i can be helped as well if i am in foreign countries, that' s why i decided to start couch surfing!

Interests

I'm a professional yogi and also a yoga teacher. I practice yoga everyday for at least one hour. So I guess this is my biggest hobby.

Besides, I also love movies, reading novels and all books about yoga.

I learned a little Guzheng, which is a traditional Chinese musical instrument for one year, but later I need to focus more on yoga so I dropped it, but I'm gonna pick it up whenever I have some free time, I love the music it makes, irresistible, pure and touching!

Traveling is my another great interest. I hope I can travel at least one country each year for the rest of my life. So far, I have only been to America for half year, working and traveling, it's really great experience! And I also went to India for one month for yoga, it’s such a peaceful place,liked it very much

Music, Movies, and Books

I love traditional Chinese music, like Guzheng, which I actually learned for a while, also I enjoy country music, light rock. Michael Jackson was my absolute idol during my teenager years, not just Coz of his music and dancing, but his purity and innocence touched me the most, he is the Angel!
I also love zhang xueyou (张学友)， haha, he is not so productive now , but still enjoy a great popularity in China without any doubt, with small but shinning eyes, he is definitely one of the most great soul singers in the world!
I love all the movies directed by Li An (李安), not because he is Chinese director, but his movies can always get into the deepest part of human nature, Brokeback Mountain, I have watched this movie for many times, still got cry every time, you should really watch it, highly recommended!
I used to read a lot novels when I was in middle school, especially kongfu novels, like Mr. Jin Yong (金庸）and Gu Long's （古龙）novels and also some traditional Chinese masterpieces, like A Dream in Red Maisons《红楼梦》，Journey to the West《西游记》, now I focus more on two kinds of books the first one is about education, probably Coz I' m a mother now, and also books about yoga, psychology, spiritual growth, etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I guess most amazing thing I have ever done is that I started yoga two years ago and stick to it till now, I practice it almost everyday now and also became a yoga teacher and got my own yoga studio, I would definitely take it as a serious lifetime career to do. The reason why I say amazing is that from my birth to now, I have never fell in love with any kind of sports activity, I even never do work-out or any exercise, so lazy and unenthusiastic about exercise, I can't imagine now I'm willing to get up at 6 to start my yoga, it's really amazing experience to me!
