About Me
ABOUT ME
I am a person who is not afraid of change and not confined by any specific field. Regardless of being a new comer and facing countless difficulties, I could always overcome all the obstacles that have been placed in my path and have better performance than most of other members. “The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones mad to live” was once said by Jack Kerouac in his work On The Road; the opportunity to experience living while studying amongst some of the finest literary minds in the country is overwhelmingly exciting for me.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I like weird people... The black sheep, the odd ducks, the rejects, the eccentrics, the loners, the lost and forgotten. More often than not, these people have the most beautiful souls.

Interests
I wish to continue these discussions and to pursue my own research in the future. I always believe Ben Saunders said: “Inspiration and growth only come from adversity and from challenge — from stepping away from what's comfortable and familiar and stepping out into the unknown.” I do want an academic training can supports me evolving to my best possible self.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
quote Albert Einstein "Any intelligent fool can make things bigger, more complex, and more violent. It takes a touch of genius— and a lot of courage— to move in the opposite direction."As a student I am anything but consistent when it comes to the studying of literature. Of course by this I don't mean I can be as equally brilliant as awful, literature life is inherently creative. It's why we all have different résumés. We create our lives, and we can recreate them as we go through them. It's why human culture is so interesting and diverse and dynamic. One of my favourite things to do is to chat with my different nationalities and cultural friends and listen to them sharing their experiences. As The Smiths had a hit song once called Ask and the chorus goes "ask me, ask me, ask me." Please do it to me.
