Enjoylife

My avatar is a combination of things I love, travel, food, and my dog! I enjoy traveling on my own and I don’t usually plan the trip ahead because it’s freer and more interesting. My dream is visiting as much countries as I can untill I get too old to move my feet. In this picture, my neck is consisted of the Great Wall of China; my nose is The Statue of Liberty; on its left is a sculpture in Cambodia; and to the right is one of my favorite Taiwanese food.(The sauce on the top looks like bloody tears…) I couldn’t find it in Toronto, so I decided to make it, yumm-o!(Am I Rachael Ray?! )The background is a frozen window of my room.(My room is still freezing even though I turn on the heater!) I would like to have a fluffy hat like that…
(All the images I use are from my own pictures.)

Sunglasses for galaxy traveling

Sunglasses for galaxy traveling

I like to imagine the possibility that one day humans will be able to travel in space the same way we travel from one city to another nowadays. If it ever happens, I hope the social context follows the development of such technological advancements and people from all parts of the world can cope with each other in harmony. My Avatar expresses this dreaminess about the possibilities of discovering different places, countries, and cultures, which would lead me to more knowledge and development of myself through different environments, respecting the differences and learning from every experience. All the photographs used in this creation were taken by me and it is constituted of a self-portrait in which I’m using sunglasses “lenses of future” (all aspects of our lives can be improved with a little sense of humor), a picture of a full moon taken in US while living there, (this side of the moon is not visible from where I came from -South America), and the background is a picture of an adventure video game image.
