ABOUT ME

I have lived in 2 other cities (one was a british colony and the other was a german colony) on the other side of the pacific ocean before I moved to Seattle which is my home for the past 2 decades.

Introduced by a friend while visiting Pittsburgh

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met some of the amazing hosts in Italy and Belgium.

兴趣

I enjoy experiencing different cultures through people, language, music, architecture and art; traveling to unfamilar corners of the world; ; trying everything at least once (e.g. Burning Man, Coachella, Ragnar); capturing the beauty of the surrounding through my lens and sketch books; learning from people who are creative, imaginative and adventurous.

Being close to the nature, water, mountains and all living things rejuvenates me. Whenever possible, I will be outdoors enjoying what the great Pacific Northwest offers.

音乐、电影和书籍

I have a very eclectic taste in music. currently i'm listening to Wild Beasts, Macklemore, Kylie Minogue, Bon Iver, Perfume Genius, Grime, Rhye, Alt-J, Oliver Tank, Asgeir and everything British. I enjoy live music and have been to both Sasquatch and Coachella.

I like movies with subtitles. some of my all time favorites include Man on Wire (just met Philippe Petit in person!), the Decalogue, the Big Blue and Taste of Cherry. once i watched all ten episodes of the Decalogue in a special viewing from 9am to 9pm!

I read almost everything. my favorite book is the Little Prince and my favorite writer is Haruki Murakami (just finished his latest novel 1Q84 which is a fine read).
