Trying to escape the box, one country at a time. One day I want to live and travel the United States in a van. I am a vegan and a minimalist, but respect other people's lifestyle choices. My biggest pet peeve is when people are stuck on their phones, instead of seeing what's going on around them. I love food and can probably eat more than you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel for the people, not the places.

Interests

Photography, hiking, weight lifting, reading, dancing to live music, meditation, bad karaoke, minimalism, jellyfish, cycling, conversations that last until 5 am.

Music, Movies, and Books

Reggae, Jazz, Indie Folk, Bon Iver, Sufjan Stevens. The Office, Rick & Morty. Currently reading the classic "Walden." Always welcoming book recommendations!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I cycled circumnavigated Taiwan island by myself despite not knowing how to shift bike gears before my trip.

Teach, Learn, Share

I just completed a 10 day vipassana meditation retreat and planning on completing a 21 day retreat. I would love to learn and talk about your spiritual journey!

I think passion is contagious. If you're wildly passionate about something, chances are, I will get sucked into it too and could hear you talk about it for hours.
