CURRENT MISSION

"Gee, Brain, what do you want to do tonight?" - "The same thing we do every night, Pinky - try to take over the world!"

ABOUT ME

I'm the oldest of three siblings. I'm a Swiss-Chinese mix but have been born and raised in Zurich Switzerland. I just turned 27, which somehow makes me feel really old.

I have studied Chinese language in China and later on International Hospitality Management in Switzerland. I chose these studies as they represent an opportunity to travel and work abroad. When I went to China for the first time, i realized that what i wanted to do is to discover the world. Not just taking Instagramme pictures and doing all the touristy stuff but really get an impression of how people in other cultures live, believe and love. I have already lived & worked in China, the Middle East and most recently in Brazil with which i fell in love. I am currently exploring the rest of South America and will see what it holds for me.

I am a very social guy, real flexible and relaxed but i do sometimes lack a bit of initiative when i am on my own. It is why ,when traveling, i prefer to get in touch with local people so i can benefit of their knowledge and enthusiasm about their country. I cook quite shitty but there's one or two dishes that i can always trade in for a spot to crash. also i am house-trained and easy to keep.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Interests

As said, people fascinate me. i can't stop to be amazed about all the funny, dorky and soulful creatures you can encounter on this planet.

I am really passionate about Music. I used to play drums and bass guitar but am a bit rusty now.

I am also really into stand up comedy and am easily kept on youtube with good tv commercials.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have worked for 4 months in a children aid center in a favela in Brazil. Hearing about the children's rough life stories and still seeing them smile, that was amazing!

I spent a night in my car in a desert of Oman. Seeing nothing but sand and stars but hearing so much more - that was amazing.

I ate duck beaks in China. That was disgusting.
