我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Whether it's travel in the arts, the literature or the real world, travel is ultimately that which helps us see life in a new way. There are indeed quite a few ways to look at the world. Popular belief to the contrary, the world is still very much a wild jungle.

Anyway, Couchsurfing help facilitate experiences with people on the inside. We like getting off the tourist circuit and spend time with people in their place.

兴趣

Immersing myself in different cultures. People photography. Going deeper into the stories from of the world; Hobbyist- ethnography and anthropology.

Always interested in conversations about life and the world we live in. As the famous story goes; blind men were asked by the sadist king to each touch a different part of the elephant; only to end up fighting when they couldn't agree what they indeed had actually touched.

My foremost passion is photography and so I'm always looking to photograph people in their place

I know a few chords on guitar and piano. So jamming is always a possibility(but don't expect much).

I used to be able to cook great Italian, but the days I'm more unsure.
