CURRENT MISSION

To see the world one piece at a time

ABOUT ME

I am originally from Los Angeles, California. Born and raised. I move out to Hawaii for school and then went overseas in China for 3 years. I taught English there while I was traveling around the country and also visiting some near by countries. I like to travel, love to eat and try new kinds of cultural foods, play video games, read, and in my spare time, do some photography.

PHILOSOPHY

Learning about new people and their personal views about life, culture, society and being open to share about them.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted a couple people. Would love to get more interactions with people through coffee, and to experience life with fellow CSers!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I started a couch surfing account awhile back but it was hard to get people to accept my requests. I later moved in with a roommate who is the CS Ambassador of Raleigh, NC and he encouraged me to get back into it because it is well worth it. Now I have giving CS a second chance!
I recently met a wonderful couple (a man from Peru and a woman from Ireland) and they stayed at our place for a few days. We were able to talk about their lives and their personal experience of living in the US. Afterwards we went to a Peruvian restaurant where they ordered the best food I have ever tasted. Would love more of these great CS experiences!
