CURRENT MISSION

To find beauty, community, peace, and joy.

ABOUT ME

I'm originally from San Francisco.

I've lived in and visited a lot of places and met all kinds of people. I'm adventurous and passionate. I really like learning about new places and people and cultures and the differences in people and beliefs in the world in an attempt to understand it as much as I can, and in the process try and discover a spark of the totality of the human experience.

PHILOSOPHY

Creativity is the closest we can come to God. Try to love and feel positive as much as possible, even when faced with negativity. When things are too negative for that, at least learn from them. Try to gain from everything.

音乐、电影和书籍

I love folk, rock, classical, and indie.

I really love lots of movies, but my favorite tend to be about extremes of the human psyche. My favorites are Heavenly Creatures, Akira, Everything Everywhere All at Once, Trainspotting, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Children of Men, Suzhou River (Chinese 苏州河) and Pan's Labyrinth.

Books: I am obsessed with reading. I love literary fiction, fantasy and Sci fi, and history and psychology non-fiction, but I'll read almost anything. I really love Tamsyn Muir recently.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I once didn't speak English for 4 days in Thailand... when I spoke it again, I could hear my own accent.

教，学，和分享

I'm really interested in different people's stories and viewpoints from their own separate lives. We're all pieces of the universe expressing itself after all.

I also really like exploring cool places, nature, history, politics, anthropology and current events in general. I love to compare cultures and experiences.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Lots of stories, cultural experiences, travel advice, and grammatically incorrect languages.

I'm pretty friendly and fun to hang out with, as I'm energetic and always down for anything! But I also love to write and read, and am low maintenance.

I am a teacher and can recite a lot about history and anthropology. I'd love to learn more about philosophy, biology, and chemistry.
