音乐、电影和书籍

Hmmm...
Sorry I am kinda all over the place with taste and creative vibes...
I enjoy many little things, and what I find really enriching the inspiration and memories we are able to create with sound, images and words:)

So some times I really enjoy the sound of silence...others I get to experience beautiful improvised music from street performers...then other times I love to concerts....

Similarly when it comes to movies...it depends lol..but I just love Amelie for many reasons and incredible documentaries like Baraka and Samsara as they catch the essence of life on this planet bypassing verbal expression!

Some special books I like...(the whole list is way too long and forever expanding LOL)
My Big TOE by Thomas Campbell
On Creativity by David Bohm
The Art of Howl's Moving Castle by Hayao Miyazaki, Yuji Oniki
L'Homme Neuronal by Jean-Pierre Changeux
Le Petit Prince by A. de Saint-Exupery
Le tour du monde en 80 jours by Jules Verne
The Essential Rumi by Rumi, Coleman Barks

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

hmmm so many priceless amazing things on my path....
And of course everything is relative so it all depends on perspectives... We all do amazing things and it's wonderfully inspiring to share them:)

So just some things that come to mind....
Talking and smiling to strangers (often getting lost in translation) I have met some incredible people.
Getting lost and hanging out with local people in the middle of nowhere...
Filling and emptying my backpack while on stops....Who would have thought that my few old things would bring so many smiles...
Running the Hiroshima Peace Marathon...
Spending time volunteering with local communities in the slums of New Delhi and feeling part of their extended family.....
Running bare foot trying to keep up with locals in the Caribbeans (man they are natural athletes LOL)
Traveling solo across India doing all the things I promised not to do (ride motorbikes in crazy places, travel on the deck of local buses, talking to strangers on trains, taking incredible long distance Sleeper class (No AC)trains...
Going on walkabout with the aboriginal tribes in Oz experiencing dreamtime stories...
Jungle hiking exploring amazing wildlife...arguing with monkeys over bananas!!!
Catching some wicked waves
Experiencing incredible islands life (getting to swim with dolphins and turtles and snorkel magic colors)
Epic climbs (Alps, Japan and Northern Africa) feeling on top of the world....
Stargazing in fab deserts and experiencing local nomadic life....

教，学，和分享

Open to endless possibilities....It's beautiful when new alchemies happen through new connections...

I can do few things and I love to share stuff I know from studies and life experiences...So if you want to have interesting conversation, experiment with food, want to do artsy stuff, create events...may help:)

I would love to learn more water-sports like sailing, fishing, getting back to waves after accident in Indian ocean:) surfing and SUP:)

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Stories, artsy and creative moments...meditation, yoga;)
My skills and I am am ready to learn cool stuff ..Interesting chats and whereabouts exploring surroundings....

When I am not travelling there will always have a corner to host cool like minded surfers (of course everyone is amazingly unique but we kinda need to get along to survive in small spaces) and share what I know and have...The special hospitality I received while traveling was amazing ....to be able to give back to other fellow travellers is the least I can do;)
