About

If you noticed my double names, "Adrian Adrian", it's not a mistake. I have only 1 name on my passport, "Adrian", but I have to put something on both first name & last name boxes. Not uncommon for Indonesian, but don't ask me why. Consequently, I can't enter UAE as they need a minimum of 2 names to issue me a visa, but life goes on. Anyways, I've lived in 7 different countries so far, 6 of them were within the last 6 years. I was born in Jakarta, Indonesia. I lived in Western Michigan, US, when I was 2-4yo. Lived in Jakarta until I was 22yo. Then I moved to Tripoli, Libya ; Baku, Azerbaijan ; Takoradi, Ghana ; Beijing, China ; and eventually Paris, France. All work related. These days, I spend my time travelling mostly to US, Canada and Mexico. Later this year, I will also travel a lot to Malaysia and Thailand. During weekends, I like to travel to other European countries, mostly random and last minute. I've travelled to about 33 countries so far. I am single, looking for casual friends to hang around, as travelling alone gets boring after a while. My randomness doesn't help me synching my travel plans with the mates. I am not a party person, so if you like parties, I might tag along, but I will stick with the drink and normally I don't dance unless if I get VERY drunk (which doesn't happen a lot). I see myself as social drinker. I don't smoke, but I don't mind too much if you smoke nearby, except when there is/are kids, babies or pregnant women around.
Interests: music, computer, movie

As pointed out by Manlin, you can go with either China Mobile or China Unicom. With China Mobile, you get a much better network coverage, but you'd have to put up with EDGE (2.5G) connection or GPRS (2G). With China Unicom, you can also have 3G, ... Read More
