About Me

ABOUT ME

Actually it's two of us, my girlfirend Yang Yang and I. We always travel together, but hosting only do I in my apartment with other two students.

-- I'm quite simple and ordinary. I like learning new languages, but somehow just because the language itself is attractive, so I usually don't initially talk a lot, unless on interesting subjects(e.g. language, culture, history, computer stuff).
I don't have too many principles, but an important one is: I usually don't travel in a country before I have more or less understood its language. So I'm learning now Spanish and Portuguese for a wider range of options. (Xiang Yu)

-- Most of the time, I prefer to listen than to talk. I enjoy hearing others' stories and going to other places. Thanks to my boyfriend, I also become very brave in trying new foods and pretty broad-minded to unusual opinions.
I like games, puzzles and science jokes, love animals, nature and freedom. Memory is the most valuable thing to me. I have been collecting my feelings and experiences since middle school and enjoying the time when I read them again. As for now, I am trying to make my time in Europe my favorite piece in my diaries. (Yang Yang)

PHILOSOPHY

Personal philosophy is usually something limits one's mind, so I'd rather keep my mind open and free from such thing. And now I find this can also be a personal philosophy...
