CURRENT MISSION

Running to somewhere with my closed eyes.

ABOUT ME

Smiley, Sensitive, Sentimental and Simple.

I am a storyteller and craft person.
l express my world value, life attitude through objects and jewellery.

The belief system behind CS shaped me, I like to question myself what I can give to others, what I can share with others, what I do possibly make surrounds a bit better.

PHILOSOPHY
No try No gain.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In the beginning, I just purely wanna help travellers when I can and meet up some amazing people regularly keep my life positive and grateful.

I finished my bachelor jewellery collection based on some of guests I hosted during a period of time (06.2014-05.2015) while I was in London. Because I purely wanted to spread the spirit of Couchsurfing---- the idea of gifting in a more special and personal way.
Each of my guests was individual and special, they were the foundation and starting points of my final collection, I transformed our interactions into pendants. That outcome was a step and mark for me so far.

During my stay in the middle of nowhere in Germany, I continued to spread the idea of Couchsurfing in a different way.

I love to trust people and love to be a trustworthy person.

Music, Movies, and Books

No Horror Movie for SURE！
Too much "Favourite"
Maybe the 1st one pop into my mind is "Paris, Je t'aime"

No Noisy Music for SURE!
I am a "tone deaf", but I love to be surrounded by music, I enjoy most of the type...

....Book?
I love reading when I was a teenager, my favourite writers were 三毛(Echo Chen) and 张爱玲 (Eileen Zhang), they were my idols from an early time (still...)
I haven't done so much reading out of academic research since I left home...
Reading "The comfort of things" by Daniel Miller recently, word by word, line by line and I just simply love it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

spent more than 200 hrs (approx two weeks) on a piece of larger than A0 collage and pen drawing work on the end of my A-LEVEL...I have done so much other time-consuming work after that, but I feel I will never go back to the same peaceful and calm feeling ...it was a masterpiece for me and also an un-forgettable moment in the life...

Teach, Learn, Share

It's all about sharing!
