CURRENT MISSION

open up the world though opening up myself

ABOUT ME

I'm curious, passionate, artistic. I often have random ideas (eg. a sudden urge to design a pirates of carribean theme park) that makes the Bourgeois laugh, the serious people frown, the artistic people say "uh huh!", the fun-loving people giggly,the intellectual people ponder.

Intellectually, I'm interested in why people have different attitude to life and views on things. On a more human level,I hope to understand, empathize and bond with people for at least a little bit. hopefully to make friends. I am occasionally self-conscious with new people, but deep down I love to get crazy, laugh and live to the fullest.

PHILOSOPHY

To live with no regret.

Love is outgoing, fearlessly reaching to the other, tremendously trusting that it will be received - and it is always received.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I try to become a better person everyday. Lately I've been trying to think in other people's shoes, and that's helped me to treat people more nicely, have more patience and see more happy faces around me! I'm realizing that making other people happy is more satisfying (sometimes in intensity, but always in duration) than fulfilling one's own desires.

Intereses

classical music. Bossa nova and jazz. Music fron any genres that's creative and of good quality.

literature, chillin' like icecream fillin', being blown away, french, foreign languages and cultures, travel, haute couture, the arts, buddhism, compassion, love and forgivenness, things that promote peace and balance like meditation, yoga and tai chi,

I like psychology - body language and the psychology of music interest me.
