About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live a GOOD GOOD life.

ABOUT ME

I am always happy to learn new things, very interested to know people from different cultural backgrounds

PHILOSOPHY

Always live to learn. Improve oneself on every aspect. And devote one's time to the most valuable part. Treasure the valuable part of the life as well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Recommended by a friend.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just started.

Interests

I do have a wide range of interests.

First of all, I love painting. I paint to relax, to enjoy my time and most importantly, to record some treasure moments of my life.

Then listening to music is also one of my favorites. The genres I listen to include jazz, classical music, as well as pop and some light rock as well. And MOST of all, I love A Cappella! I myself is a choir member.

And then I watch tons of movies. Fictions and dramas are always my favorite. I like twisted and complicated story lines, but simple warm and touching ones can also move me a lot.

And what's remaining? Doing sports, like swimming running yoga...

...I 'wasted' so much time, do I??

Music, Movies, and Books

About music:
I love classical music. They are so beautiful and so sophisticated.
But I'm also "spoiled" by pops even guilty pleasure songs. :D

About books:
Generally, fictions are the love of my life. Hugo is always my God. And I also like Alan Poe... Weird me.
Recently, I've read George Orwell's works and totally love him! Very insightful.
Flowers for Algernon also touched me deeply.

About movies:
I've watched tons of movies!!!

Firstly all time classics including the Shawshank Redemption.

AND Tom Hanks' works, including Forrest Gump, the Green Mile.

Quentin Tarantino is my GOD. Kill Bill, Pulp Fiction, Inglorious Bastards, Django Unchained.

Christopher Nolan is also superb. Inception, the Dark Knight Rises.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sitting on a rock on the Bosphorus river side, enjoy the strong and slightly chilling wind, and sketch the Bosphorus Bridge in the distance.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn about local culture, how local people are living their lives, and how they think about their lives.

I can share my living experience too.

Also we can share a lot of cultural and artistic thoughts as well.

AND I love to learn languages, and can teach Chinese if you are interested.
