About Me

CURRENT MISSION

travel around China and around the world a.s.a.p....

ABOUT ME

I'm a person with a desire of freedom. I believe we are not born to die, I want to constantly explore new experiences in my lifetime. Life is precious, I don't want to live my life for traditional expectations and spend time on complaining-there are so many things worth for trying!

I may share a same thought with you - travel around this world in a most personal,direct and interesting way. Be true to the friends I have encountered and offer others helps I could give.

PHILOSOPHY

Be the change you want to see.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I didn't book any hotels in advance for a 15-day to Sourtheast Asia.I looked for hotels after I land in each city.

I completed half marathon on the first try without any preparation in 2010 BJ International Marathon event.

I recently learned butterfly swimming style by myself.

I rode a typical Dutch bike to work on my first day in Holland and clashed into another bike...

I saw a long and beautiful rainbow flashing by on the street when a water truck drove by, I was waiting for a bus.

I made a instant decision to take a train to Tibet in 2012 and after that I realized going to Tibet is easier than I imagined.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can practice drawing if you would like to be my model...but no gurantee the sketch will look nice, it may turn out the opposite! I can also teach you the basics of playing the drums and teach you Chinese if you are interested. Vice versa, I'm always interested in learning anything from you.
