A hermit, an open introvert, an androgyny. I'm also a nerd but more of a disgrace to Nerdland (trust me I feel very bad about this).

Pretty aloof on the outside (excuse me!), but rather airheaded and silly on the inside.

PHILOSOPHY

Plenty but quite phony. But plenty of people have told me I'm a stoic.

Back in 2012
I exist to observe, contemplate, accumulate and analyze. Or just float around. Out of all kinds of freedom, mental freedom means the most to me.

Now
In a middle of a transition, old beliefs falling into million pieces. Just a sudden flip in sentiments.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Quite accidentally. I just entertain the idea of being a vagabond. Or Gandalf the Grey.

Interests

Wandering, Introspecting, Discussing online a little bit too much.

I like drawing comics, reading literature analysis, researching, collecting books with beautiful illustration and wandering.

Music, Movies, and Books

A. Book: I read but not books (say, reddit and wikipedia...). Into philosophy and poetic prose. Japanese fiction.

B. Music: Post-rock, ambient, indie, symphonic metal, electronic (not to be confused with EDM/techno/house). Got into classical recently and can't go back.

C. Movies: I used not to watch movies much as I didn't want to compromise my pace. But I'm more open to films now, especially to analyse the plot, characters and motifs. I like Japanese films, Korean films, and something provoking like Sans soleil, Mulholland Drive, Old Boy, the Handmaiden, etc.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Show up at a monastery at the mountain foot in the night asking for shelter.

Teach, Learn, Share

Just talk. Stories of your life (and your travel). Personal philosophies. Debates...?

I'd love it if you can tell me in-depth about your favorite book (as I'm so lazy to read).

I'd like to be educated in Western nerdy subjects (I'm from a different culture here, where nerdiness without the lack of at least moderate social skills is revered B->).

What I Can Share with Hosts

I may inform you that we don't need actual experiences that much, and that those crafted by the mind and the dreams are much more fantastic (talking about astral projections and dreamwalks!). Your part is to refute it :P

I mean I live in my head too much and I'm sure other people are more experienced and in the present hence have more to teach me.
