About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To apply Manifest Destiny and enjoy all the beauty life has to offer through it. 活在當下

ABOUT ME

Currently residing in Taipei helping others who want to come study here through my company Mandarin Taiwan. Recently I've been more into business and networking, along with talking about life philosophy as I continue to battle internally whether I want to be a 'grown up' or continue my vagabonding lifestyle. I'm up for physical sports and adventures but have been out of the drinking and partying game for a bit. If you want to meet up for coffee and hang out or go exploring I would totally be up for it though!

PHILOSOPHY

It's not why, but rather why not.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I participate in the CS project by offering whatever I can to any other surfer when they need it. It's all about paying it forward. I've even started a company with the soul purpose and effort to help those who need it on a larger scale here in Taiwan.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Great experience with some people while backpacking China. Also have thrown several events in Taiwan with many couch surfers participating! Always awesome people!
