Check: fosterthedifferences.com - a blog by me, where you would get to see through my mind. ABOUT ME - An Introvert (and at times pseudo-extrovert) guy, with a deep passion for people and society (in terms of making better life for people around me, but not yet to the wider society - I find myself lacking the confidence for anything bigger than my surrounding - and, hence, the blog). - I tend to look at the world in positive way, most of the time, yet still feel uneasy every time I encounter a less than pleasant condition, e.g. I would try to find a solution to an issue but I still have the itch to "fix" the whole chain that caused the issue (to an extent that I might have insulted some). - Well, I also try to avoid debating over unimportant, impractical, things, e.g. let's say that some people say their religions (and Gods) are better/truer than others, but because I found it of no importance to my life, let's just live and let live. (Oh, I would still ask some simple practical logical questions just to gain more knowledge, or just to nudge the other person)

我为什么使用Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING Based on information I got from hangout friends who are surfers, I signed up to see events nearby. Initially I cannot host, but I've just moved to an apartment and I can host now. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Once surfed in Paris. Mostly only hanging out with the surfers/hosts in Jakarta. Most time I went abroad, I live at my friends'. But, hey, I don't have friends all around the world (yet) :D
音乐、电影与书籍
Books: - The Power of Habit, - Blink, - The Tipping Point, - Steal Like An Artist, - Harvard Business Review (many of it) Music: - Mostly songs with great vocal, sometimes into beat. (some names: Paloma Faith, Whitney, Sia, Ed Sheeran, Sam Smith, Adele, Lady Gaga, etc.) Movies: - Maleficent, - The Blind Side, - The Proposal, - Smallfoot, etc.
我做过的一件令人惊叹的事
I have no one exceptionally amazing thing (that I can think of), but some would be: - Travelled solo twice to Europe and many times in Asia — making some friends on the road in each trip - Looking into Bromo crates after walking the distance - Laying on the sand on the beach, experiencing dark blue sky glittered by some sparkling stars, - Blogging in my non-native language (it's hard for me!)
教学、学习、分享
Share: - Ears to listen to your stories - Language (Indonesian, a bit of Chinese and one of its dialect - Hokkian) - HR thingy - Tips on Indonesia (and other countries) I've been to Learn: - People and their behaviours - How to relax a bit
我能与房东分享的
People from all walk all life have something they can share, even the old lady who talks a lot can teach us if we listen. Personally, I am good at probing and would be interested in discussing new things, taking your perspectives and blending it with mine. Well, I could share how Indonesian lives (from the way we speak to the way we act); how an architecture student could end up being in Human Resources (it has a decade of history). OK, I'll come up with more of this!
我的兴趣
Reading others' opinion on life, especially the ones related to how to be better person, and not how to be the winning person.
