a nomadic spirit with chinese roots, on a journey of feeling home within and carrying her forward

hi folks, chanshi here -
a being who loves trees, water, light, and movement

i spent a big chunk of my early 20s in the netherlands living, growing, experiencing and exploring who i am, till last summer i decided to leave my bubbles in europe, continued my flows eastward, and started a new cycle back in where my heart feels close to

most of my energies are devoted to communities (ecological/spiritual/artistic), ecosystems, music and somatics, and i do see myself seeking and floating in those space for the time being

be water :) my friend

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

each encounter is an exchange, i cherish whoever i encounter and connect with in the flow of my life; and i've been lucky to come across and entangle with many inspiring souls who have expanded my views and experiences on life

音乐、电影和书籍

all time adventurer in exploring music genres, which varies from time to time but currently been listening to cumbia, brazilian dnb, bossa nova, indie soul, jazz hip-hop and instrumental/psychedelic/medicinal/ecstatic/folky stuff
- african electro always have a special place in my heart :)

i enjoy going to the cinema alone and immerse myself in the big screen; i like unusually-themed films with unique aesthetics or point of view: more-than-human beings, philosophy, queerness, feminism, sociology, intimacy etc.

im mostly reading self-discovery, (non)fiction, decolonial, political, poetic and philosophical, adore good story-telling writings that convey emotions and feelings
