About Me

Travelling October 2019 to spring 2020

CURRENT MISSION

wake up...

ABOUT ME

I am from Canton in south China and live in Wales at the moment.
I've got bitten by some bugs. Some of them are called travel bugs, some were famous sandflies on the west coast of the south island of New Zealand, but the most painful experience was bitten by a giant centipede in Japan. I tend not to use adjectives to describe myself and others, I would rather feel it. But I've got to write something here... I'm just an ordinary person who sometimes laugh sometimes cry sometimes in between. In general easygoing and curious. In the morning, I like to be waken up by the sun and birds, and inhale some cool and fresh morning air, and quietly falling asleep at night, ideally with some bedtime reading (which is a luxury sometimes). That means I don't talk much in early morning or before bed. And the rest of the day, for you to discover. Simply loving life everyday, feeling at home wherever I go, content and grateful. I'm a student of the Buddha and pretty much everyone.

PHILOSOPHY

The past is a memory. The future is the unknown. Now is the knowing.
May all be happy.
