Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Collecting absurdities...bringing a little excitement and emotion wherever I roll
ABOUT ME
Look at your life in the third person and laugh.
Currently working on setting up a nomadic space, like a Hermit Crab of sorts which serves as a space for anarchic art, questioning rigid and imposing systems and pushing human and socially innovative solutions to urban problems. (Urban gardening, urban renewal from below rather than above etc).
This is my latest foray into a fragmented involvement in social activism and social entrepreneurship.
PHILOSOPHY
Nothing in the world is still or fixed, everything is fluid and in motion, we are all nomads. Following from this basic philosophy, it is all about process. Cause the most emotion, joy and least pain and suffering on a personal and community level, but in wider society be prepared to stand up for people. Live anarchically, question systems.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Our new palace of delights in Taipei. Just started out. Teahouse, Sake Bar, retro furniture, designers and community classroom, events and exhibitions. We regularly have the underground artist community living lounge. Take us with a pinch of salt.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Before I started on the site i'd woken up on countless sofas, benches, beds, eco-villages, floors and parks. My last experience was in Japan, went swimmingly.
