About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Life is an adventure. After death, nothing matters...only the people you met, the experiences you had with people, and doing different things the world has to offer.

ABOUT ME

I am currently working in Beijing teaching programming, English, and operating my own startup. I like to have fun and interact with people from around the globe. I'm pretty open-minded when it comes to a lot of things...man...I think those who make that next step to live in a foreign country all have these traits. :) I'm by nature a really introverted person but there are moments where I shine like a light bulb created by Nikola Tesla(not Thomas Edison)

PHILOSOPHY

I think travel and meeting people from different cultures is my life!!

Music, Movies, and Books

I like movies that inspire me. Into the wild is one of my favorites. I love J pop!!!! I am embarrassed to say that I am kinda into the whole self-help genre thing..haha

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've done bungee jumping to eating grasshoppers in china.
I once walked 67 kilometers when i was WWOOFING in Japan from Fukuoka back to my host's home...which took me 13 hours. I documented the whole journey for anyone who is interested.:)
Not proud of it, but I spent 6 months in Japan WWOOFING on organic farms...even overstayed for 5 months on a 1 month tourist visa.
Oh...and I've also backpacked around Europe for 3 weeks without a plan...Had to wing the whole thing.

I am by nature, a born listener. I will be happy to share my stories and I'll be even more delighted to listen to yours :)
