About Me

CURRENT MISSION

shop less eat less travel more

ABOUT ME

I'm friendly, easy going, no drama, and open-minded. I like Photography and tons of different things. I'm a good kid in general.
I'm usually quiet when first meeting new people, but I love to listen to people's stories.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is beautiful. Food and ice cream are wonderful.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can offer a space in my living room if you need. I don't have anything fancy, but if you just need a place to sleep. Welcome :)

Just a few things you need to know before sending me request :)

1- Send a request at least a few days please. I do feel bad if I get last minute request and can't help you.

2- If you plan to come and tell me about your arrival. Please come. If you can't make it, please let me know. It is frustrating for me to wait for people and it is annoying too. I don't wanna spend time waiting for somebody who never shows up.

3- Be clean and don't smoke in my apartment. I truly appreciate this.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Autumn in Virginia.
Angkor Wat in Cambodia.
Secret Beach in the middle of Vietnam.
Motorbike trip to Nhatrang, Vietnam. Driving between those big trucks and cars by motorbike can be scary sometimes :D
Sunset over Sydney Opera House.
I've been to the US for exactly one year (08/31) and been to almost 10 states.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can show you how to cook since I'm not so bad at it. I like making my own food and cooking without recipes. Cooking is fun and eating is a new meditation.

I love to learn.
