CURRENT MISSION

To create as much positive change on this planet with my life as I can. To spread love and understanding. To help people become more free, happy, and travel more. To help entrepreneurs be able to grow their businesses and help more people.

ABOUT ME

I'm easy going, vibrant, fun, mellow. I'm half Taiwanese and half European and Chinese is my first language. I love to have fun, be silly, goofy and playful. I love travel. I backpacked the planet for 2 years straight, 30+ countries, countless cities, and towns. If you wanna learn more about amazing places to travel to, hidden gems, etc, I'm happy to share while I'm visiting!

I help people start or grow their own businesses and help them grow what I call a "Freedom Business" which allows them to travel the world and even make income while they play, sleep, eat, travel. I teach entrepreneurship, business, and the Inner Game of Success: That's Mindset and the Psychology of Success. You can think of it like bio-hacking the brain naturally with mindset sessions. It helps with peak performance and with things like productivity (and decreasing self-doubt, procrastination, fears).

I love social psychology: understanding people and society and the ways that a society shapes us and vice versa. I love meeting new people, learning new things, and teaching. Teaching about business and entrepreneurship; dating, relationships (I used to be a counselor); the Inner Game of Success, communication, psychology, and sociology, travel secrets and hidden places to visit, off the beaten path adventures, the list goes on...

I love connecting with people, esp people who are vibrant, or passionate about something, who have something cool to share, a different way of thinking. I love meeting other travelers.

PHILOSOPHY

Positivity, growth, exploration, travel, awakening, adventure, and loving - as a verb.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was part of SERVAS for the 2 years I backpacked the planet. They spread world peace thru a style akin to couch surfing! I did Servas in Europe and loved it. I've now switched to Couchsurfing and love the great friends I've made.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

I teach and help people start and launch businesses or projects, leveraging and scaling one's business or life "4-hour-work-week-style", making your business what I call a "Freedom Business" so you can travel the world as much as you want, just to name a few.

I can teach how to grow an audience or a community on social media, to get sponsors and work with brands.

I can teach Chinese and some Sign Language. :) Sharing language is always fun!

Dancing - multiple styles.

Travel secrets: how to travel the world on a shoestring. Places to go, secret hidden places around the world, how to backpack or travel the planet with ease, etc .

I also teach classes on dating, relationships, Positive Pick Up Art, and how to be Ninja at Communication too. (I used to be a counselor who ran workshops).

When I come to NY, LA, or London, I run The Entrepreneur and Small Business Institute - and I run an event called Speed Networking where you get to network with everyone in the room!

When you host in cities where I run events, you get to come for free to my events.

I've taught very successful parenting classes for 8 years too, so if you have questions there, I can help. :)

I love learning about just about anything and everything. People and life just interest me. Im a curious kitty. :)
