Travelling in Australia now

I will answer EVERY couch request and message carefully no matter it is agreed or rejected coz I believe it is about courtesy. Also I value EVERY encounter with CS friends coz it is magic that has brought us together from around the planet. For those who never replied others or rejected abruptly, I think it's good news that we have NOT ever met.

CURRENT MISSION

Life is short, my journey is long.

ABOUT ME

a Cantonese girl now living in Dalian, China, a city of natural charm and sadly, cultural absense. this city will appeal to you with its azure sky, wide ocean and fresh air.

About myself? A human being of contradiction.My life is somewhat tedious but my mind is spinning crazily.. Crazy about music, cooking good food, and traveling for sure. I love meeting people from around the globe as I could be warm and outgoing beyond imagination.

PHILOSOPHY

Hold a heart joyfully beating and eyes wild open

音乐、电影和书籍

Movie: Luc Besson's works, especially Leon, I cried every time I watched it...and those films touching the deepest part of my heart, such as La Vie Est Belle..

Music: well, it seems elderly male singers appeal to me, like Sting, James Taylor
I love Jazz singers Diana Krall
Bossa Nova sounds good
electron is great, especially some trip-hop (Mono), Moby, Petshop boys..currently addicted to Röyksopp
Rock, of course! but not very "hard" one. The Beatles for sure；Garbage (sometimes it's grunge); the Cardigans...
Beautiful folk music of China and anywhere;
Ah, too much to specify...

-Watching a live clown show on Piazza Navona in Roma

教，学，和分享

I mayored in English literature in university, and after graduation I have been working as a translator until now. I like transition coz it can build a bridge between different cultures. I have translated some travel books , including the well-known Lonely Planet. They are: New York, Florence, Greece, South America, New Zealand, the Fillipines, Maldives , Cambodia and Central Europe. My dream is to set foot on the earth of which I have translated.

My second foreign language is French. Et je comprends un peu de Francais. I need to improve my French in the near future and be submerged in French culture more deeply.
