关于我

CURRENT MISSION

To become a great and knowledgeable person and explore the world
Bring the truth to the public

ABOUT ME

Positive, easy-going, have my own opinion and love knowing about different cultures. I am a person with diverse interests, reading, playing instruments, watching movies, listening to musics, arts, travelling... You may see me as a quiet person from the first sight, but I am talkative and is always up for a new conversation on anything with people from all walks of life, from serious topics to casual chats (especially with my occupation). Feeling the kindness and beauty in the world is of utmost important to me. Learn as much from reading a book and reading a person.

PHILOSOPHY

I love to be intellectually inspired, that's why talking to people interests me so much as if every time I am treading a path that leads to somewhere unknown, somewhere new.
Reading is like breathing to me, it opens my eyes and connects me to great minds.
Wherever I travel, I always prefer to dig deeper into the history, the formation of culture so to grasp the essence of the place a little bit more as I can. I don't usually just stop and take photos at each touristic spot.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just started to couchsurf with my more-experienced friend in a ten-day trip and meet 5 hosts respectively in Dublin, Oslo, Basel and Strasbourg two years ago. They are all very nice people, unique in their own way and inspirational!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One host in Oslo has taken black-and-white photos for me with old cameras from 1920s. That's one of the most unique experiences in my life! Now I own a film camera, totally inspired by that.
