One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Went to a creepy ghost town with friends for celebrating my 22th birthday, take VR in the abandoned elementary school there and use the resources for supporting anti kids abuse project

Joinedburning man festival China and somehow make it my own graduation party:)

climbed the mountain in Laos with flops and dress to see the fantastic waterfall view from the top ：）

came back from 72th General Assembly of the UN with brand new ideas and mindset ;

Gave a presentation about art and public welfare in Harvard Kennedy School of Government;

Just start art&technology project with my partner and will make it a social business;

Have be an art facilitator in an dance/art therapy project for a group of lovely teenager girls in a super cool rural high school (the principal of which is also a coolest principal I have ever met)

Have been a freelancer interpreter when in university and have many impressive experience such as stepped and stayed in super weird farm (somehow a cult...), learned some tricks in business negotiation which is super attractive to me and wanna know more if you would like to share lol

Other crazy things like being led by several Japanese police officiers at midnight to find my luggage, coz I forgot where I locked them in the coin locker...

Or sth like I try to get myself out of potential danger when in Vietnam..

... most of the times, I don't seek for crazy things myself, but they find me

Teach, Learn, Share

My Couchsurfing philosophy
-- prefer deep conversations
-- get inspired from ppl different from your field and listen to the amazing things you are doing ( my friend has invited me to give opinions about his newly-made video game, I don't play video games at all, but surprisingly find out that we both get inspired from each other)
-- I am doing interactive art installation for social issues project with friend. And interested in the following topics:

Art/ social business/ NGO / social issues

When I am traveling, I tend to avoid tourist destinations and have got a list of abandoned and weird/offbeat places in Japan. Let us make a plan, rent a car and go for it!
