About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I don't know, change the world? - That's certainly a big mission in life.

ABOUT ME

I am an avid outdoor enthusiast who grew up and still lives in the metropolitan New York City!
Growing up in such a dense city, I know how to share and be respectful of other people’s spaces. And in such a city, my curiosity to know the culture and complex background of all the world travelers never stops!

I am also an architectural and ceramist designer.
I think there are many amazing things to explore and see.

Other than that, feel free to ask me anything. Seriously, just ask me random, absurd questions!

PHILOSOPHY

Go with the flow! See what you can do with the situation!

Harder, better, faster, stronger
^yea, Daft Punk!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Not really sure how I would be able to 'build this community' of couchsurfing more than what it already is. But I certainly would love to maintain this friendly and open environment that it has become. I would also love to meet new FRIENDLY strangers around the globe and share a small experience with them.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed in San Francisco [a lot of fun] and hosted in Buffalo [pretty cool] but I think one of the more unique experience is from a very novel request I could not turn down - hosting a portion of the Ultimate Frisbee team for the Division III Nationals Championships in Buffalo...awesome!
I surfed for a week in a town nearby Barcelona's city center: Vilanova i la Geltru. Beautiful and peaceful place.

Music, Movies, and Books

I appreciate all sorts of music. But my fall back is mostly indie rock, electronica, alternative, and I do like the old school rap music... I'm diverse.
For a feel of things, I'm currently listening to: RHCP, Arctic Monkeys, Mumford and Sons, Modest Mouse, El Ten Eleven, Album Leaf, Ratatat...and so much more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Paddled in a torrential storm, type: Black Storm. In Hong Kong, to prepare for a dragon boat race. I also don't know how to swim.
Biked a few hours just to watch the sunrise at Niagara Falls. Pictures and words will do no justice to capture the experience.

But that's something random that comes to mind.
So, give me a minute to get there...

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach, let me Learn, and Share me your city!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can humbly share my background and knowledge. I would love to hang out and get to know how everyday life is for you.
