ABOUT ME

Open to difference, eager to learn.

PHILOSOPHY

Life's full of possibility, so never restrain yourself from trying.
The world is not perfect, that's what makes every tiny little good things in life more valuable.
Learn more, see more. Either your soul or your body must keep moving, by reading or traveling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I knew couchsurfing from my friend a few years ago, though I didn't think it would be a good idea to try since I was too insecure on travel. But now I think the idea of cultural exchange through this mean is actually pretty awesome and I can't wait to try it :)

Interests

I love music, film, different culture and language. I like photography, though I am definitely not good enough to be called a photographer. Singing is also one of my greatest hobby. I enjoy deep conversation. And of course, travel.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love those by Stanley Kubrick, Ingmar Bergman. Historical epic films are my favorite. I also enjoy watching films of different cultures (among those I think Atanarjuat and Himalaya are very good)

This is my list (unsorted)

I enjoy many kinds of music, from classical to metal. Personally I like the diversity of music culture and so I always try to find out what music is like in other cultures, rather than digging deep in one particular style. Among those exotic music styles Mongolian Khoomei (or in general throat singing) is very attractive to me.

I don't read many books :(
But I think "The Stranger" by Camus and "the Metamorphosis" by Kafka are my favorite. I like Haruki Murakami too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I thought studying Physics, Philosophy, German and Linguistics in university was amazing, then I thought solo travel was more amazing... I think I don't really have any extraordinarily amazing experience yet, but our experience changes, and it can only be more amazing!

Teach, Learn, Share

I speak a couple of languages, including Cantonese, Mandarin, English, some Japanese and German.
