About Me

CURRENT MISSION

One day I will get rich to be a useless hippie.
Or maybe I can only end up as a poor philosopher like Socrates.
God knows.

ABOUT ME

I am kinda introvert but sometimes talkative. I am open minded and enjoy exchanging ideas and thoughts as well as hanging out. I work out several times a week to keep healthy and vigorous. I am fond of things that are creative, interesting or inspiring.

PHILOSOPHY

Existence precedes essence, there is no designed map for life.
Wise people know how to free themselves and build their own meaning of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There's a Chinese motto saying, read ten thousand books, travel one thousand miles.It means a good qulity Chinese should not only stay indoors studying books but also go outside see the world. I think I've learned the world enough, but I haven't felt the world firsthand.

I love exploring new things and would try new paths even for work commute. After years of work since college graduation, I feel tired of the routine life, so I quitted my job and thereafter made several domestical trips including Taiwan and now an working holiday in Australia to broaden my horizon.

I believe couch surfing offers a great way to experience the local culture and make alien friends. By communicating and living together for a period of time, we can share different thoughts and some common views on many stuff and have a good time worth remembering.
