COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I ended up married and living in France after a reoccurring dream I had about Versailles. Apparently I listen to my subconscious.

教，学，和分享

I'm a professional photographer, programmer, Multi-media artist, Illustrator. I like to play GO, sometimes chess. Could make a good collaborator. Could give you good lighting tips ; )

I'd love to have a language exchange. Mandarin now because I'm planning a photography trip for next year in China. I'd also love to learn Spanish, Italian, Japanese, and German (but that should be easier because I have a large background, I've just lost it because of non-use)

I'm a very articulate english speaker...
