CURRENT MISSION

I've made a mission of searching for my mission.

ABOUT ME

I like making people laugh and trading books. I do my best to distinguish "wants" from "needs." When I was 15, I read a book called "Crimes Against Nature" and decided to devote my life to environmental issues and social justice. I've always had a terrible memory but on the bright side, I can never hold grudges. I'm an environmental policy research associate at a university and a volunteer EMT.

PHILOSOPHY

"Sometimes, 'nothing' is a real cool hand."

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love surfing and hosting! Unfortunately, nowadays I'm only available for coffee dates and making suggestions on places to go. I look forward to having a nice apartment one day so I can be a host and return all the kindness I have been shown.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Several lovely people have opened their homes to me, some of which I have reunited with across the world!

兴趣

Being with good people, eating good food, and listening to good music. Like most couchsurfers, I like to make my travels feel authentic and take my time as I explore new places.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I used to work at a zoo and bond with the gorillas through the glass in the mornings.

教，学，和分享

I'm not quite so sure where I want to go in life. My theory is that if I continue to meet new people, they can teach me new ways to live.
