I'll be kind to my inner young adult)

## I like to make things for people to look at,
think about, or come up with ideas that influence
the real world.

## I'm open about anything, really.
I can sleep anywhere,
there's nothing I don't eat,
I would prefer to be behind the camera.

## As a kid our family had a film camera and
I always wanted catalog all of the
iconic landmarks in every city in the world.
A little older the dream was to live in every continent.
Ask me about now ;)

## Studied Mass Communication
then worked in Public Relations,
writing emails, releases and managing events.
Conscription caught me and I was
shipped into the army. Fortunately, there
wasn't any violence in the office where I would plan
training and safety logistics for our obese recruits:
Singapore's No. 1 Slimming Centre
Life went so fast after that I don't even

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

## Culture exchange:
Widen my knowledge about the world
and the many interesting people I haven't met.
I'd like to better understand what it's like to be living
and not just visiting the places.
Getting to know people who have their
experiences in a different environment from you
brings about excitement :)

## SHOW ME HOW THE NATIVES EAT
Then I'd love to hear your honest view of
what life is like where you live.

## Getting out of my comfort zone:
If you don't have room, it's fine. Somewhere I could
maybe leave my stuff for the day would be nice :)
Is that a neglected bicycle in the corner?
I'd always appreciate tips on safe spots to
stay the night/places I can find power (or a shower)
Perhaps you could loan me some camping gear ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

## What/Why
/ Enjoy anything that presents an eye to a
possibly alternate universe/timeline.

There's some excitement in that don't you think?
It's a good think that leads to unconventional ideas.

What I Can Share with Hosts

## I'll help you take a selfie, if you insist.
It'll be a good looking photo ;)
Or if you like I could take some pictures
of your home for you to keep.
People often don't think to take pictures
of their home, but I think it'd be a nice memory.

## Some of the chai tea I brought with me from
sunny island Singapore (imported like everything else)

## Lifehacks i've adapted into my life.

## Honest opinion.

## My resourcefulness.
Looking for something?
Perhaps I can find what you're looking for (maybe)
