Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Learn enough Chinese that I can talk to taxi drivers.
ABOUT ME
Things I like: new experiences, learning languages, music (especially heavy music!), learning things that blow my mind.
PHILOSOPHY
Hume - "Be a philosopher, but amidst all your philosophy, be still a man". In other words, don't worry too much, and keep both feet firmly on the ground!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
So far: language exchanges (English <> Chinese). Hopefully in future will be able to host, and would love to surf when I have some free time.

Music, Movies, and Books
Movies: If it makes me laugh, great. If it brings a tear to my eye, even better. If it makes me think, better still.
Music: I love metal, but my tastes are pretty diverse. I don't like "factory produced" music, though.
Books: I don't read nearly as much as I ought to. Recommend me something!
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I love going to festivals - the sense of absolute freedom from inhibition to be who you want to, yet also being part of something greater than yourself.
Teach, Learn, Share
Trivia, but not the kind that comes up in pub quizzes. Fascinating but generally useless facts.
