CURRENT MISSION

see the world and its lovely inhabitants :)

ABOUT ME

A couchsurfer since 2010.
I want to see the world... but more importantly want to see and meet people from all over the world :)

I'm a pharmacist and freelance photographer in Vancouver. I love travelling and have backpacked through quite a few places in Europe and Asia, and would love to keep doing that til my knees are too weak to carry me and my backpack :)

PHILOSOPHY

Be wiser and kinder each day.

There's something beautiful in every moment, whether spending it with cheerful company or in solitude, doing big things or small. So take it all in and let it become part of us.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hope to experience a place and its culture and people without prejudices or agenda, but with open-mindedness and humility.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm new to this, as I just recently heard about it :)

Interests

Exploring the culture and natural beauty of places I go to.

I love jazz, animation, films, books, languages. I also like to blog--about films, music, life in general.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There're always things that OTHER people have done that are more amazing than mine, so I'll change the subject to "Favourite Thing Done/Seen". That would be living in a small farmhouse in the countryside of Japan. It wasn't amazing, but it was one of times I enjoyed the most.
