Taiwanese American working as a software engineer in Phoenix. I'm loving the heat!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I joined Toastmasters recently so I'm practicing my speaking as an occasional local guide. I will share with you all that I know about Phoenix. Please bring your story.
The location of my apartment makes it ideal for people who wish to travel north to Sedona or Grand Canyon from Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport. I am starting slow and hosting a guest (1) at a time for one or maybe two days (1-2) to see how it goes. If you do stay with me during the week, I would need to go to work around 7:30 AM. I appreciate people who respect others and are thoughtful and considerate. I know for a fact that pathological liars are out there and some of them are just here for a free ride. However, the majority of you on this site are amazing and I have plenty to learn from you. That's why I'm Couchsurfing.
*NOT LOOKING FOR A HOOKUP. Ladies welcome. Preference will be given to people with different backgrounds.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

While I'm often guilty of the same, I find it funny that this culture is constantly judging people by the things they have achieved. Why do I need to be the biggest and baddest? Is being a decent human being not enough that we have to seek external validation? Yes, yes I know I had one drink too many. And for the record, I don't even like the taste of alcohol.
