About Me

CURRENT MISSION

find my own field, learn a skill and earn some money!!!

ABOUT ME

I`m a just-graduated student from Uni of Glasgow , Economics (well, sounds depression :P)
havnt got lots of traveling experience yet, I quite enjoy the feeling of "on the road" and would like to talk to different kinds people with interesting thoughts!
Be INSPIRED!

PHILOSOPHY

By far, my personal philosophy is "Follow the heart". And I`m still interested in talking with people about there own religion or how do they find what they believe in is helping in whichever way.
I do believe that the ture value among people is the same. The "disagreement" or "dislike" is due to viewing from different aspects and the level of understanding:)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

when my friend searching for our couches, she said: you just need the PROFILE!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Got CS once in London. It was such a good memory of travelling. With the direction and advice of the local host, you could explore the place in a secret and local way! All the open markets cycling within the city make me feel not like a "typical visitor" but a real traveller. What counts most is trust and enthusiasm which make u feel relax and exited.

Interests

with a Nikon D90,not professional yet, but really enjoy observing through lense!and keep taking photos every day!

learned sailing in 2months, in the winter of Scotland! love being a sailor!

Music, Movies, and Books

two of my favorite movies are "Amélie ". the first one tells about a n innocent and naive girl in Paris, with her own sense of justice, decides to help those around her and along the way, discovers love. It is such a "pure" world in my mind and feels like a fiary tale for adults.
For books recently is "Sophie`s world" which I`m reading now. It`s an intersting book make a brief introduction about philosophy through the "lessons" learned by a girl named Sophie. I personally think it`s a good book for thinking about philosophy for beginners like me.

Music----Gosh, those vantage jazz&blues voices just sooo hooked up my ears.
and James Morrison`s got such a sexy voice! XP especially the "u make me something"
Daniel Powter`s "bad day" could really make my day.
plus, what did Joe Mcelderry sing? "Climb"

I would like to add the TV show "so you think you can dance" here. This is much more than entertainment that it brings out the attitude of profession, passion and perseverance.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1 few month ago I just finish 'The lord of the Ring"(movie) 1、2、&3 through a whole one night from 1am to 11am(the next day!). It feels like I`ve had a wonderful journey in the "midland" , such a magic night ! And then I searched a lot of background and interviews of the cast and backscreen staff directly afterwards. It makes me a "half-fan" of Tolkin(as I dnt have much reading of his work). I think I will go further of this magic story such as reading the books, rewatch the movie or go to NewZealand(the midland in the movie)! Though I felt a bit dizzy and sleepy for the next few days, I till think that it is very worthwhile to wathch it as it spread such a wonderful land in front of my eyes and mind!

Ps, have to admit that Orlando Bloom is so cute ;)

2. Not such a sports-enthusiasm person though, me and my friend just cycled for more than 6hours!(It seems that the google map thought it would take 3hours...lol).Tired and exited, I never thought that I could cycling for such a long time and still enjoy it! That makes me a cycling fan and fall in love with those nice and cool gear bikes!

3 practicing capsizing in the winter of Scotland is the best part of sailing!
