About Me

CURRENT MISSION

make the very best of it

ABOUT ME

I used to be a very shy and introverted person as a kid. I lost quite a few opportunities so now, when a new one comes, I just ask myself "why not?"... gotta make the most of chances life throws at you! I also think its awesome to meet people from different parts of the world, different cultures and different backgrounds. You learn the most from those who think differently from you.

PHILOSOPHY

Be positive and make others around you feel positive as well. Life's too short to make it any other way!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have hosted several persons in Guangzhou and participated in different CS events while in China. I also surfed in Bangkok for a short time and met some awesome ppl while doing it. Was also part of CS in Tallin and Riga (hosting and events) and finally also join several insane CS events in Hong Kong.
