CURRENT MISSION

live life large, of course.

ABOUT ME

In the morning I do not think what should I wear that day, but with which kind of tea should I start it.

Gadabout, globtrotter, challenger, passenger and voyager. Usually somewhere on a highway, smilling at strangers' cars.

PHILOSOPHY

Maybe the journey isn't about becoming anything? Maybe it is about un-becoming everything that isn't really you so you can be who you were meant to be in the first place.

The thing about the bold moves... they are terryfing, could end in nothing but tears and broken bones... and that is exactly what makes them so damn exciting.

"Where there's a will there's a way."

When I go fishing, it is not fish that I am after :)

and last but not least: LIVE LIFE LARGE

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Been there, done that :)

兴趣

Foreign languages and culture. In my journeys I search for atmosphere and understanding, not monuments of the past.

As well horsemanship, visual literacy, art (especially photography, but also illustration, intermedia, video), crossing boundaries within my body and mind (which particularily means long distance running, urban exploration and climbing), inner journeys (which stands for meditation, shaking hands with myself and gaining self-awarness). But if one asked me to pick one thing I love the most, it would be Bubble Tea (trademark) :)

音乐、电影和书籍

Books? Yeah, I do read them :) Favourite? Still looking for it. Btw, I collect Le Petit Prince in different language editions.

Movies: "Celestial Wives of the Meadow Mari", "Ashes and Snow", "Imagine", "Samsara", "The Tundra Book", "Secret of Kells", "Kings of Summer", "The Fall", "Life in a day".... I love short-animated films, especially "The Maker" and all that was created by Bąkowski or Antoniszczak.

Music: All kinds, all genres, as long as they pull this particular string inside my heart. Really enjoy folk-inspired music and mixing classical sounds with modern vibes. Currently in love status: Shanghai Restoration Project and DJ Okawari.
