CURRENT MISSION

A good traveler has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving-Lao Zi

ABOUT ME

After studying Japanese and anthropology went to Japan where I lived for about 8 years in total. 2 years ago made the switch to China and now living and working in beautiful Nanjing. I am very laidback, openminded, like good food and drink, and have wide interests.

PHILOSOPHY

"Question everything. Learn something. Answer nothing"
Euripides

"A good traveler has no fixed plans, and is not intent on arriving"
Lao Zi

"There is surely nothing other than the single purpose of the present moment. A man's whole life is a succession of moment after moment. If one fully understands the present moment, there will be nothing else to do, and nothing else to pursue."
Yamamoto Tsunetomo (Hagakure)
