Born and raised in China, spent last four years for Bachelor in the States and recently move to Berlin to continue my study of Mathematics. Love Fitness and Gastronomy, learning foreign languages, reading literature in the original languages and talking to native speakers for an authentic and immediate experiences of their life and culture. Although I do not perform music as a professional, listening to them, esp. Classic/Jazz/EDM is how I find myself most of the time. Always ready to share my limited amount of stories as much as listening to stories of other people with an open heart. Overall, I would describe myself as an easy-going, quiet, chill but also talkative person, who is clean and orderly at home and leads a healthy lifestyle. Keyword for my inner self: minimalism; keywords for how I see and expect the outer world: embrace the diversity.
