ABOUT ME

Its really hard to communicate on the internet who I am, I'm sure with you as well. Just moved to Shanghai from Nantong. Familiar with the area from studying abroad here a couple of years ago. Love to meet new, interesting, delightful people!

PHILOSOPHY

Personal Philosophy? Well, we all die. Let's make the best of it and try not to kill or hurt anybody on the way, ok?
