About Me

CURRENT MISSION : See the secretly cool spots around the world and find new friends and visiting old ones. Getting to see the billions colors of life.


ABOUT ME: Washington DC, Houston

PHILOSOPHY:

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath.

To study darkness, you have to turn off the light.

So turn off the light and hold your breath!?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done


I stayed 2 months in a middle of a desert and did nothing! why?? because of Stars and sunset!That was an incredible life experience! During the days, there was nothing to see except the sky and the earth touching each other all around me. OK, I read the Joke by Kundera and worked in a mine during the day.

second greatest was hosting a crazy American political jackass "journalist" friend. I can not tell you more about him here. but you can ask me if we met.
