CURRENT MISSION: THINK LIKE A TRAVELLER!

ABOUT ME: Born in London. Grew up mostly in Vancouver. Lived in DC for 9 years. Currently live in Seattle! My goal is to become a teacher or professor, I want to teach English or ESL. I am still trying to figure out life, so I am going through life now trying new things and trying to live life thinking and acting like a traveller in everything I do whether it be at home or abroad.

Besides that, for me, BOOKS AND POETRY ARE BREATH AND LIFE.

PHILOSOPHY: I try to think like a traveller in whatever I do in life. I am trying for a more minimalist approach to my life as well: light suitcase, light heart! Unfortunately sometimes the temptation for shoes and books can be overwhelming, heheh!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I saw a production of Metamorphoses in 2013 (written by Mary Zimmerman) that totally left me SPEECHLESS and AWESTRUCK. It was one of the most amazing theatrical productions I've ever been to!!!

In addition to that, I went to a Deaf arts festival in Reims in 2013, and there was a production by Teater Manu called "Exit Hamlet", and it was a mind-fucking piece of performance art. Very little dialogue (ie. sign language). It was a visual-performance art interpretation of Hamlet's "to be or not to be" monologue. Every single thing about it was amazing, including the costumes. This was the first performance art production that I have ever seen that was created by Deaf students (Deaf students from Stockholm, I think). It was ... just... I don't know, but words can barely even describe how much it took my breath away... truly existential-crisis-inducing.
