I’m a fan of dad jokes. The more terrible the pun, the cornier the play on words, the more I like telling them. For example: A termite walks into a bar and asks, “is the bar tender here”?

I run a local meetup group(http://goo.gl/TP2NNQ) where I have met a lot of strangers that I now call friends. Some call me a social butterfly, other people tell me I need to stop talking so much.

I once fixed an iPod with a chopstick and superglue. I'm the Asian version of MacGyver; but my hair isn’t nearly as majestic as his.

I like late 90's - 2000's pop music. You'll often catch me singing some BSB out loud in my office or car.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I did AirBnB for a while. I loved meeting all the different people from around the world and sharing with them the awesome city of Chicago. Unfortunately, my home owners association sent me a cease and desist letter telling me to stop doing AirBnB, fortunately they said nothing about couch surfing!

I really enjoy hosting folks from outside of the USA. I love getting the exposure to other cultures and getting new perspectives on the world.
