  • Description

    You can call me ColourBig, CB, 卡拉比, 小衲, or 顏大 (in Cantonese). Whatever you feel like!

    I speak Chongqing dialect, Cantonese, Mandarin, and English. I'm learning Spanish, Japanese and know a bit of Korean.

    Where I'm from doesn't matter. I'm trying to be a anarchist.

    I'm not sure what kind of person I am, but there are a lot of adjectives people have used to describe me. It’s not accurate, but it might give you an idea: open, humorous, radical, emotional, impulsive, direct, logical, quirky, artsy, childish, self-righteous, honest, lucky, calm, rational, someone you both love and hate, brave, edgy, kind. You name it.

    I like a lot of things. I'm like a perpetual motion machine, can't stop. My life is all about constantly happening and learning new things. I love colors, the feel of soil, being in water, taking non-linear paths, hopping on tiles, asking questions, and being asked questions.

    I'm non-binary, but I was raised by women, brought up as a woman. I don't mind if you call me "she," but if you could use "they" more often, I'd feel seen.

    I wanna connect with all the people. I'm curious about everyone and know them deeply. Life is so short, I'm trying to love more! Even one more!

    If you ever need a place to stay, my home is also always open to you. (Currently in Guangzhou, China)
