Hello there, you can call me Surreal or Gary.

I have just recently moved from Chengdu to Beijing with me and my three turtles, Cookie, Cornflake and Pie

As a rule, I don't host people who rarely host, never hosted or send obviously copy paste messages.

So if you send me a request, but haven't hosted or dont appear to have read my profile, I may decline the request. I have a password for requests further down to show you read my profile.

I am a Freerunner, Parkour athlete from London. I lived in Chengdu as I studied there and graduated in Tourism Management 旅游管理.

I would describe myself as a funny. energetic, sarcastic, cheeky. I like to be straightforward and honest. I love philosophy and movement.

I have been living in China over 9 years. I have lived in Sichuan, Chongqing and Guangdong.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like the idea of meeting new people and learning from each other. I believe true family is the friends you make in your lifetime :)

Being in a hotel is powerful, but boring.
