Peng, who is originally from Taiwan, works in the film and television industry in Beijing. She graduated from the Tsinghua University and said she liked living in big cities, such as Beijing and Shanghai.
"I am concerned with safety when living alone, but I can ask for help from friends living nearby when I am sick or in trouble," she said.
Peng added she dreamed being a baker when she was a child, and since there is a restaurant near Peng's rental room, she often exchanges cooking experiences with the restaurant's chefs.
