I love the couch surfing community. For several years, I ran the couch surfing meetup in Chengdu, China. I love traveling and meeting travellers, and I especially love the community that Couch Surfing provides around the world. The ethos behind couch surfing is the same ethos I live by: Be kind and inviting to everyone who travels to a new location, and always be willing to be nice to strangers and make new friends.

In the day, I enjoy working with software for self-driving cars
In the night, I love a good conversation and an exciting adventure with his friends around the city.
On the weekend, I always try to get out of town for a mountain hike!

CURRENT MISSION

I have been living in China for almost 8 years, and I finally left. At the moment I am traveling around the world to find my next place to live, and I'm excited about meeting friends at every stop.

I love pretty anything that is a new adventure for me. New experiences are what keep me alive, learning, and thriving.
Like us all, I'm still doing some soul searching, but in our lives we should always keep learning and always keep growing as people. :)

ABOUT ME

I am a rather silly and outgoing person who really just likes to be easy going, do fun activities, and above all spread a smile throughout the world. I am generally a very happy person who attempts to get along with everybody by spreading kindness, respect, and cheer. I really like having intellectual conversations with others, especially people who are very different from me, because I think everybody has something beautiful to offer to the world and our lives are a never ending learning experience.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I LOVE meeting new people. My friends and I always say together that when you couch surf, you not only see a new place, you experience a new culture along with it. That's what I want every time I travel. Our relationships with others is what makes life beautiful

Interests

My favorite thing is spending valuable time conversing with other friends, my favorite types of activities are those that I can spend outside, and I feel happiest when others around me are happy. I love to volunteer when I have time because I think it is important to give back to the community, and my end goal is to add more joy to the world than I take away from it.
