I live a pretty static life and only for 3 weeks every year, I get to get off the same old routine and travel anywhere I want. I believe it will be incredibly rewarding to interact with people with very distinct and different backgrounds from myself. I like traveling alone and being able to meet like minded people who are searching to explore the different perspectives and learn about other cultures is extremely fascinating!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel alone quite a bit compared to most of my friends. I stumbled upon this site and hope it can help me meet some like minded people who can enlighten me in facets of the world I never explored.

Interests

I enjoy museums, history, some arts, and talking to the locals for a glimpse of their lives.

• arts
• partying
• traveling
• backpacking
• history

Music, Movies, and Books

OneRepublic is my favorite band. I do not watch movies much, if at all. I really liked Tuesdays with Morrie.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went on a 3 weeks backpacking trip by myself in China. For some reasons, I never felt safe when I was there. Now thinking back to that trip, I applaud my boldness.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am taking a break from hosting at the moment. If you are super amazing and think it will be my loss for not hosting you, please go ahead and send me a request along with a paragraph selling yourself. It might just work ^^

Things to know when asking me to host:

1) I do not live in downtown San Francisco. I live 10 mins drive from the SFO and around 30 mins drive from downtown SF.

2) You can take the bart from my place to downtown SF for around $7-8 round trip, 30 mins ride each way.

3) If you let me know in advance your arrival dates, I might be able to take days off from work and drive you around the bay.

4) I do not enjoy partying. If you want someone who can guide you through night life, I can try to find friends who can show you around. But I won't be your primary source.

5) I live with my grandpa and 2 other siblings.

6) Try to avoid asking for last minute hosting. It is extremely difficult for me to coordinate my time as a lot of other surfers planned their stay with me weeks (sometimes months) in advance.
