Currently, I am studying business in Hong Kong :)

I hope to seek adventure and truly understand more people by visiting different countries.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

"To see the world, things dangerous to come to, to see behind walls, draw closer, to find each other, and to feel. That is the purpose of life" (vimeo.com/152048250) --The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. There are three main reasons why I visit other countries (and coach surf), first is the culture, second is to serve, and third is for adventure. There is more meaning to life if we take a step to find each other.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have done many amazing things, though I am most proud of the little things that lead to big amazing things. Loving my family and serving my community are two things I am most proud of.
