I believe that there's enough for everyone's need, but not enough for everyone's greed. I'm still practicing this thought, though.
I have little interest in making myself more interesting, or visually appealing, or influential. I do the things I need to do.
If both of us have a genuine interest in learning about and respecting one another, then we should meet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here primarily because I want to learn to speak Mandarin relatively fluently.
Nevertheless, if it happens that we decide to meet for any reason at all, I'll strive to be of service to you. I treasure the people I meet.

Interests

I love swimming and dancing. Not a professional athlete, but I'm happiest when my body is moving.

I work at a natural farm. We strive to be receptive to nature's lessons, so that we can restore balance back to the living ecosystem of the land.

I have smaller siblings, and have spent many years and weekends designing learning experiences for kids.

Music, Movies, and Books

Items sooner or later fall out of favour, but lately I'm much indebted to Roger Hodgson, Nina Simone and Tom Roush.
I hardly ever watch movies.
I love folktales of many regions and traditions.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Kept my mouth shut at the right time. When I was younger I was very easily provoked; nowadays less so.
