Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To learn, grow, spread joy, deepen my understandings of the world, and, overall, have FUN!
ABOUT ME
I like hiking/walking and exploring, learning, conversing, and trying new foods! I am a lifelong martial artist, with Hapkido and Taekwondo as my base. When I lived in Japan I hosted on Hospitality Club, and met many wonderful friends. When I was located in Seoul, Korea, I hosted many folks had really good times. I've couchsurfed through Asia, North America, and Central America, and loved it!

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I host when possible and surf and love meeting new people.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I met a good friend through Hospitality Club, who introduced me to CS. I ended up crashing with his CS friend in Tokyo twice, one of which was for a week. It was a life changing experience. I loved it!

Music, Movies, and Books
I am into hip hop these days, but specifically conscious hip hop. I like silly, fun movies like the Marvel series or the Hobbit movies, and I enjoy pulpy fantasy novels. All about Game of Thrones. For TV shows I am an avid Doctor Who fan and I will get geeky about a huge range of shows.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Traveled for over a year straight. It changed every part of who I am.
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach: Rhetoric and power politics (and, more importantly,the ethics thereof), basic Spanish or Japanese, basic self defense, swimming, theatre, anything that we can think of that we know anything about that someone seems interested in.
Learn: Everything please! Teach me. :)
Share: Whatever we have.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can share my experiences, my love of conversation, I can cook for you, and I will even make you fancy Chinese tea if you like. I will also listen to you and have fun. Why are we here? I believe to smile and laugh and enjoy our lives. Let's enjoy together.
