ABOUT ME

**GLOBE-TROTTING**
Good girls go to Heaven; And the rest to everywhere.

**SENSIBLE**
Life is easy to chronicle, but bewildering to practice. Although intrigued by the idea of eternity, I am a firm believer in the Existentialism - The universe is indifferent to us, and we have to live with the MEANINGLESSNESS of the world, while giving meaning to it.

**CHINESE**
Proud to be a Chinese and dignified by my cultural identify.
In Europe and the U.S., I've met people from various backgrounds holding narrow-minded stereotypes towards China and obnoxious thoughts towards Chinese girls. I’m hoping for some self-inspection before anyone sends out the request.

**IN AMERICA**
“What brought you to America?” “Rock ’n’ Roll.”
That was a very honest answer to this question, although my priority is to get education and work experience here. I graduated from Georgetown University and now work in Washington D.C.

PHILOSOPHY

Carpe diem.
Pelea por lo qué qiero!
旅行或读书，身体与灵魂总要有一个在路上。

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being alive.

Teach, Learn, Share

**LANGUAGE**
I'd be happy to teach you a few Chinese words or expression that are fun and easy to learn (Considering how difficulty it could be :P).
I’m learning Spanish, and aspired to learn Arabic, French and Japanese. and intrigued by different cultures.

**FOOD**
I am enthusiastic about food - when I'm the host, I would cook #Authentic Chinese food and share with you the recipe.

What I Can Share with Hosts

**PHOTOGRAPHY**
Me being a photophilic means not only do I love being in the photos, but also endeavor to make the best use of the light and camera - a Cannon that has been with me since 2011.

If you are photogenic and/or want your moments to be captured, I’d be happy to be your photographer.

**INSIGHTS**
Having been navigating through different culture, studying and working in cities as diversified as Beijing, Madrid, Washington DC, Doha, and New York, I have grow my unique appreciation of this globalized world.

If your curiosity about China is limited and impression of this country comes from the “Chinatown”, we should have a nice conversation about it. =)
