About Me

Traveled 30 something countries, and now settling down in San Francisco Bay Area.
I was a golf coach (and I have a Golf Management degree) for a couple of years, and then became and ecologist when I found that golf courses are not environmentally friendly. Now working in tech doing cross-border business.

A bit more:
1. the US Congress said I’m awesome (certified)
2. indirectly changed a law
3. lived in the wild alone on a island in Spain for 6+ months.
4. The horse was my only friend when I was there.
5. lived in a temple in Nepal for 4 months, meditating and enjoying life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love Couchsurfing spirit, caring, sharing, be free but be considerate. I believe travelling should be a part of basic education, people can learn authentic culture, history, politics, economy from travelling. And communicating with people from everywhere can also cultivate empathy, care and love.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I'm old fashion I love the Beatles.
Too many documentaries that distract me from watching movies.
I love reading, all sorts of books and always want book recommendations! Learning, especially reading books, is therapeutic to me.
I like to read and watch about the outer space, and imagine and dream about it in a lot.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

An expansion of Number 3:
I was living in a national park in Spain alone for six months working on a water quality research project. I was kayaking everyday and the sea was my bathtub. There were many wild berries and figs that I was only sharing with birds and my best friend who’s a wild white horse. I saw lots of shooting stars. I had a telescope, a few microscopes, a magnify and a pair of binoculars.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to share stories and possibilities in life with people, and I like listening to people's stories even more.
