ABOUT ME

I am a student and I aspire to be a person.

PHILOSOPHY

If I don't know, I find out.
And stay happy.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

It is the most fun!

I have stayed with various hosts cum friends across Europe.

兴趣

North Germanic languages/cultures, self-sufficiency, organic/biodynamic gardening, urban agriculture, hiking, astronomy, hospitality, classical civilizations, 19th and early 20th century antiques, ballet, regional food/wine/beer/spirits, the usual.

I like a good party night just as much as I like a relaxing evening.

音乐、电影和书籍

I like to read Hermann Hesse (Demian, Siddhartha), Jane Austen (P&P), David Mitchell (Cloud Atlas), a little Karl Marx here and there, and a smattering of Thomas Mann (Der Zauberber, Death in Venice).

I like to listen to Andrew Bird, Patrick Watson, James Vincent McMorrow, Beirut, Edward Sharpe, Tchaikovsky, Mozart, ABBA, and much more.

As for movies, I am all across the board.
