Eurasian68's VirtualTourist Home Page

Hello to all VT members in the world:-)
I am a person with no roots, I guess most children of mixed marriages feel this way.

I have lived in many parts of Asia during my childhood such as Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Thailand and finally, Singapore, where I started my education. Singapore has also become my "hometown" in my heart, I have the most wonderful memories there. And the happiest childhood anyone can ever imagine.

Due to my job, I lived in Hong Kong for 10 years. It was an experience i would never want to miss! During this time, I travelled frequently to India, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore and Vietnam.

I moved back to Cologne, Germany in 1998, after spending one year in Almancil in Portugal. I noticed soon that I left my heart in pretty Asia:-)

Personally, I would travel miles and miles for food īcos to EAT is my biggest hobby *smile*.
Thanks to my asian gens, I can eat and eat and eat......
Actually, I should weigh at least 5 tons! HAHAHA

If in this lifetime
You don't open your mind,
You cannot digest
Even one drop of water!

In original nature
There is no this and that.
The Great Round Mirror
Has no likes or dislikes.

- Korean Zen Master Seung Sahn -

"Use your will to bring peace between people"

doesn't always work with them!

Sipping champagne and overlooking the beautiful scenery of the winter in South Germany!

What a feeling!!

Singapura, oh Singapura
Sunny Island
Set in the Sea.....

My brother and I, both have a pimple on the corner of our nose.... something just always connects us!

Coming empty-handed, going empty-handed
That's human
When you're born, where do you come from?
When you die, where do you go?

There is one thing that is pure and clear, not dependent on life or death.
Then what is the one, pure clear thing?

-Zen Master Seung Sahn-
renowned master in the Korean Buddhist tradition, and founder of the international Kwan Um School of Zen, died on Tuesday, November 30, at Hwa Gye Sa temple in Seoul, Korea. He died peacefully, surrounded by his students. He was 77.

In June 2004, he received the title "Great Master" from the Chogye Order of Korean Buddhism, in appreciation for his lifetime teaching. This is the highest honor the order confers.

He was author of six books in English: Dropping Ashes on the Buddha, Only Don't Know, Ten Gates, Bone of Space, The Whole World is a Single Flower and Compass of Zen.
