CURRENT MISSION

follow. your. bliss.

ABOUT ME:

I was born in the Year of the Rat. (1984 to be precise!)

"Sometimes mean, narrow minded & suburban in outlook, 'The Rat' is nevertheless, honest. He has the faculty of following through anything he undertakes to the bitter end, even if it's doomed to failure! He can always make a success of his life as long as he manages to master his perpetual discontent & his insistence in living for the present."

Also on a less generic note:
I have been a committed vegetarian for 17 year (& a sloppy Vegan for the past 2 years!)
I have more freckles than friends.
Nature is my muse.

PHILOSOPHY
Eat. Pay. Leave.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have been "unofficially" couch surfing for years. I love the fact that I can make new friends by 'officially' couch surfing.
I've been to a few CS events... I should really participate in more!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed in The U.K, Germany, India, Indonesia, Nepal & New Zealand. Each experience has differed in so many ways but they are all connected by virtue of being super positive & I'm only interested in building on that!

兴趣

教，学，和分享

“Life itself requires energy. Food is stored energy. Ecosystems organise themselves to use energy as efficiently as possible. And human societies expand or contract, invent new technologies or remain static, in response to available energy supplies. Pay attention to energy, and you can go a long way toward understanding both ecological systems and human social systems, including many of the complexities of economic and political history”

- (R. Heinberg’s essay ‘The party’s over: Oil & the fate of industrial societies’)
