About me! Hello everyone! This is Elaine here. I want to describe myself as a person who never stops exploring new life possibilities. I was born in the southeastern China and grew up in Beijing. I started to travel independently at the age of 12 and almost visited each province within China during my college time. Now my footprints extended to the Continents of the rest Asia, Europe and North America. I am currently living happily with 3 doggies, an experienced traveler and well-organized leader who owns broad interests. Let's meet!

Details about the accommodation: 3-stars chain brand hotels in the convenient city areas (shared room and breakfast included) will be normally arranged, as the service quality of hostels is unpredictable sometimes. Single rooms can be organized on request with price difference. However, you may expect one night in traditional Chinese house - Siheyuan to enrich the journey. Do you have questions about the trip? You can let me know in the Q&A section!
