I started as an A.I. researcher, but moved on to do banking, international development & art management.
I was born in China, but moved on to stay in various countries for study & work, including Africa & Middle East. I have been staying in Singapore since 2006.
I started as a non-believer, but converted myself multiple times to Hinduism, Taoism and Buddhism.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started to use couchsurfing when travelling across Afghanistan. I used it as a means to find shelter and protection as many local hotels do not even accept foreigners

In the later years, I continued to use couchsurfing as a means to connect to people of different walks of life

Interests

I like technology, especially AI and robotics. This is my major.
I like arts of all types. I used to write for magazines, busk in streets, perform in theater etc.
I like travelling. Every destination is amazing in its own way, be it New York city or an Afghani village.
I like trekking, extensively in Himalaya region across Tibet, Nepal, India & Pakistan
