Hello! I'm Albert and I'm a Chinese American. In my previous life, I was a software engineer clunking through life. This time around I want to explore the world and my interests.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I wanted to experience a more authentic way of traveling. When I did my first backpacking trip through Vietnam and Thailand, I mainly explored the touristy areas and stayed at mainstream hostels. The trip was fun and met a lot of interesting people, but I could've found similar experiences back home. This time I want to meet more locals and step outside of my comfort zone :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I vibe with The Weekend. Haven't watched too many movies besides those Marvel ones but honestly if you pointed a gun at me and told me to recite everything I know about it, I'd draw a blank on you XD

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've gone scuba diving in Koh Phi Phi, Thailand! One of my favorite experiences yet :) I loved seeing all the different sea creatures and experiencing the serenity of the ocean.
