ABOUT ME

People say I am exccentric and sometimes tactless. I introduce myself as a laidback person.

PHILOSOPHY

Why we live our life? We have ups and downs in my life and have to take the rough with the smooth. Why and when the world is created? and by who? god? Who is god? and where is it? I guess those questions exist to find its relation nature. Every little thing helps our life. I like thinking like these regardless of religion.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2008, I traveled by bycicle from Dawin to Sydney in Australia and went on surf trip by bicycle from Noosa to Sydney.I towed a trailer at the back of my bicycle,carried a surfboard on it and surfed on almost every beaches between those. On the way to hit the east coast,I worked at cattle station for 6 months in outback in QLD,Australia. We mustered cattles on horseback. We often went pigging off the work. I met so many people and great nature during the journey. However, my camera got broken after a while. So if you've seen me on roads and have my photo riding the bicycle like on the main picture, could you do me a favor and send it to me, plz?

Teach, Learn, Share

I've been skiing for 20 years and used to be an instructor for a couple of years. I am ok to teach you skiing,if you are a beginner. Even if you are intermediate or advanced, I would still be able to give a bit of tips to improve your skiing. But if u are a mougle/ bump/ freestyle/ racing skier, I'd like to follow u and steal your technics!
I'd like someone to teach me advance English like the phrasal verbs, famous proverb, idioms, jokes, and so on.
