If I had to describe myself in one word, it would be adaptable.
I enjoy learning about new things, being adventurous and challenged.

I love to be around people and meeting them-- whether it's to converse, listen or explore with. My family and friends describe me as very outgoing, enthusiastic, spontaneous, and creative.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Life's too short to spend it in one country-- there's a whole new world out there.
I'd love to see the rest of the world, explore as many countries as I can and mingle with the people there. I feel that one's experiences are not only made up of beautiful landscapes, amazing food, but the encounters with the people and culture around them.

I think travelling is an amazing way to escape your own world, learn, experience and be inspired by infinite things.

I've got a serious case of wanderlust. I'm currently planning my trip to Europe and aiming to leave in Fall 2015.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I took the opportunity to work 9-5 in Vietnam for a global advertising agency for two months doing design and art direction. On the weekends I did the soup kitchen cooking amazing Vietnamese food for the less fortunate or rounded up my cousin and their friends, home-cooked over 200 meals and delivered them individually to the homeless throughout the entire night on motorcycles.
