About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Teach at the middle school Gongshan Yi Zhong

ABOUT ME

Well I am a very open-minded person and like to explore the world

I am working as a voluntary teacher at the Gongshan Yi Zhong in Cikai, Gongshan, Yunnan, China. The children in Gongshan grow up under poor conditions. They do have the benefits of a good education. Thus a couple of Baumhaus volunteers try to improve these conditions.

I offer my visitors to take part in the voluntary work (no must :) ). By introducing foreigners from all over the world to the kids, i hope to increase their interest for the English language.

On the weekends I have time to go hiking in the mountains of Gongshan. I also could show you a Tibetan dance club, where they play tibetan and club music, and serve good beer.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is short, break the rules, forgive quickly, kiss slowly, love truly, laugh uncontrollably, and never regret anything that made you smile. Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.

Mark Twain
