Hi, my name is Thomas. In the picture is my lovely wife Bung. Currently, we live in Vancouver, BC. We operate our own clothing business both online and at events throughout the year. I was born in Hong Kong and moved to Vancouver when I was 12yrs old and Bung was born in Thailand and moved here with me at about 5 years ago. We love the outdoors, in our offseason (Winter) we do lots of rock climbing in Asia and see friends & family back home in Thailand. I love animals, I used to volunteer at this place called Owl Canada which we help injured birds of prey and help them recover and back to nature. I miss doing that a lot! I always want to help out with wildlife if there are any opportunities. I love ice hockey, I used to play goalie/player a lot until i got a knee injury and now I still love just watching. In school I studied at this outdoor program called Wildlife Leadership, this is how I got into rock climbing. I used to teach but not anymore, I just enjoy doing it a little when I have time now =D. I love to talk and meet people and new friends. I like to share my stories with others. My wife is a bit shy but that's ok! We are both non-drinker & non-smoking.

By the way, i totally forgot to say that I love watching anime!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

In these past five years we have been travelling a lot, we went to places like Laos, Vietnam, California, around Canada and of course all over Thailand. Yes, all over! I only went to Japan for like two days, so this winter I want to see Japan more. I plan to be there for 1 month & half, see Tokyo, Kyoto and some other area (undecided). Since we have our clothing business, I am fascinated with vintage textile from Japan. I want to see and learn more in this trip to Japan. Besides that, we want to meet some locals and get to know the culture better, since we don't have many friends currently live in Japan.

兴趣

I have been rock climbing for over 10 years. Mainly sport climbing in Squamish, BC, all over Thailand, Laos, Vitenam and some in USA. I love working with birds of prey, did that for three summers at Owl Canada. I love to study Japanese vintage textile like boro indigo, fireman coats and folk wear. My wife loves sewing and travelling to new places. Also I like to watch Japanese animation.

Things I want to learn: dancing (dubstep, hiphop), sewing, fabric making, playing the guitar, new languages, Japanese Sashiko Embroidery and many more.
