CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I enjoy exploring new places, observing different cultures, and pondering about how the world works.

Trying out the local culinary delights.

I love music, and finding a new band to love is one of my joys, but so is sharing music.

I love a good story(teller) (whether it is a book, comic, or oral folklore). My youth was influenced by fantasy, so my imagination always tends to lean in that direction.

Becoming a productive member of society has effectively made my world views more grounded in realism, but my adventurous nature now just manifests itself in different ways. I am always looking for new unique experiences to push the boundaries of my life and perspectives to new heights.

PHILOSOPHY

"Life's a Blur, then you die..."

教，学，和分享

Knowledge is the one thing no one can take from you, and the more you learn the better you can understand the world.

That being said, I'm willing to share any knowledge I have or receive any knowledge you are willing to give.
