About Me
Jack of all trades trying to master of all
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I travel as much as possible like the other mortal beings.
I am good at research and planning but when it comes to discovering a culture, you always miss a thing or two.
I truly see the benefits of the community and contributing as much as I can

- anime
- music

Music, Movies, and Books
Movies: It is impossible the name one, but If you can mix Steven Spielberg, Martin Scorsese, Shinichiro Watanabe(Master) Chan-wook park, David Lynch, Hayao Miyazaki, Wes Anderson, Jim Jarmusch, Satoshi Kon, Akira Kurosawa, Paul Thomas Anderson, Tensai Okamura, Yasuhiro Irie, Tetsuro ARAKI, Min-sik choi, Gary Oldman(bcuz he is f'in Gary OLDMAN) and the greatest Sir Anthony Hopkins in the 3rd dimension, that would be the taste I am looking for.
Additionally, as 2Pac said "Live by the anime, die by the anime" or "Anime Lyfe"(Nope, I aint tatted that)
Music: I have a huge appetite of music but mostly, a rap geek, classical music heretic, trip hop maniac, rock n roller, jazz junkie, blues thug and such.
Books: I cannot pick one, but: Yasar Kemal, Shakespeare, Haruki Murakami, J.R. Tolkien, Tolstoy, Steinback, Kafka, Salinger, Ernest Hemingway, Neil Gaiman just a name of few.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Sitting on the riskiest cliff in Grand Canyon. It was so weird. Your mind struggles with tons of feelings coming from the heart while it is beating his cage like Kong. Just looking at that neverending view cures pretty much everything. There should be a rehab like "Grand Canyon cliff sitting".
Teach, Learn, Share
Learning Japanese as I'm into the culture deeply. Any kinda contribution is welcome
I try to create my own sound so never know when I would be okay to release my song
I've done 2 steampunk novels but could not manage to deal with a publisher yet. The fate is still flipping coins
Pretty much into everything so teach/learn exchange is not a big deal
