https://about.me/tonywangtj

More of a pub than a club guy. Enjoys a nice pint of Guinness, Swedish cider or Manx ale (new favourite) over some deep convos and laughters.

Just another ordinary guy living in an extraordinarily ordinary lyfe.

Firm believer in "You'll learn more from a journey of 10,000 miles than from reading 10,000 books."

100% ''When in Rome, do as the Romans do." type of traveller.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I will be backpacking in China for about a month, from 11 August 2016 to early September 2016. As I will be flying to the UK on 15 September 2016 for further studies in Bristol. I wanted to spend a month backpacking China a little bit. Looking forward to meeting all of y'all!

I am new to this amazing community. (Est. 9 August 2016) I had some Airbnb experience. Not a lot lah. I love travelling and meeting travellers alike from all walks of life. I want to take this opportunity to start couchsurfing so that I can at least have some experience before couchsurfing the UK, Europe and the rest of the world.

兴趣

Backpacking, running, road cyclist (in the tiny Singapore), amateur photographing, binge watching, spotifying etc.. And.. R+L=J! (at last) Y'know what I meant. ;)

I ran my first ever 5K in my life at the beginning of 2015. Subsequently, I ran 5 full marathons in 2015. Namely, Sundown Singapore, Penang Bridge, Standard Chartered Singapore, Standard Chartered KL, Chiang Mai International and Standard Chartered Hong Kong Marathon this year. I fallen in love with it.

I viewed running as a platform not only for personal fitness and healthy lifestyle but also a platform for personal reflections and character development to keep my sanity checked. Definitely one stone two birds I'd say! Highly recommended!

Aspired global citizen. Learning foreign languages to facilitate immersion in countries.

"Talk to a being in a language that s/he understands, it goes to his/her head. Talk to a being in his/her language, that goes to his/her heart." - Nelson Mandela (rephrased by Tony) Y'all get the gist of it. ;)

I am also on Duolingo. It is a great platform to kickstart your language learning jouney! Also, I treat language learning as my brain snacks. It helps to keep the brain juice and electrons flowing in my opinion. And of course it also implies slowing down memory/mental retardation* apparently! So.. don't be a retard, go and learn some languages other than your mother tongues! XD
*According to neurology researchers :)

音乐、电影和书籍

I can't live lyfe w/o Spotify. I am also a highly audible person. Sometimes I relate a particular place or memories with songs that I played during those moments.

One of the dozen apps I can't live w/o is IMDb. I have rated closed to 2,000 titles on IMDb. And I have accumulated another 2,500+ titles in my Watchlist.. So much to learn, so little time! Lyfe is short! Seize every moment!
Some of my favourite movies are listed here:

Here are some of the books that I am currently reading.

教，学，和分享

I am a natural diplomatic peacemaker by heart. I always like to instil and spread that belief to loved ones around me.

I am an avid autodidact and I call myself a professional Googler. I believe almost anything can be learnt online these-days.

I am an extroverted introvert. I love to share my stories and interact with the people that I crossed path with.

Hopefully, eventually, living in a utopian society where everybody living in harmony, peace and a violent-free Earth.
