Description

Hi, this is Linlin from China. I recently quit my job and started my world trip — a big and exciting step for me. My rough plan is to travel overland from China through Mongolia, across Russia, into Europe, then to North Africa, the Middle East, Central Asia, Southeast Asia, and finally back to China.

It wasn’t an easy decision — quitting my job in my 30s in China and still figuring out what kind of life I want to live. But I believe everyone has their own rhythm, and it’s never too late to start living life in your own way. I see this journey as a chance to slow down, explore, and discover more about myself and the world around me.

Rather than just sightseeing, I want to dive deep into local cultures and meet people from all walks of life. What matters most to me when traveling is connecting with people on a deeper level — those real, human moments that make the world feel smaller and kinder.

I’ve lived in China, New Zealand, and Australia over the past few years. My time in New Zealand especially inspired me — it taught me to live more simply, appreciate nature, and stay open-minded.

I’m a hardworking, curious, and outgoing person who’s happy to help with all kinds of tasks. I’m also very interested in documentary filmmaking. During this trip, I hope to capture meaningful footage and stories along the way. If you’re interested in that too, that would be wonderful! And if not, that’s totally fine — I’ll make sure the camera never gets in the way.

I love movies, basketball, snowboarding, dancing and I’m always up for new adventures and experiences. If you think I might be a good fit for your project or simply want to connect, I’d love to hear from you!

More details about your skills

I’m a cheerful, responsible and curious person who enjoys meeting people from different cultures and learning new skills. I’ve had several wonderful work exchange experiences before — helping with olive picking in New Zealand, working in a lodge in Wellington, and assisting in a backpackers hostel in Melbourne. These experiences taught me a lot about teamwork, communication, and living in harmony with people from different backgrounds.

I’m happy to help with photography, videography, marketing, hospitality tasks, or general help around the house or garden. I’m a fast learner and don’t mind getting my hands dirty!
