I work at Google in Los Angeles and live very close to the famous Venice beach and the historical Venice canals. You can walk/bike/rollerblade to Venice beach or the canals in few minutes. Santa Monica pier and Santa Monica Promenade are just another few minutes from there!

I am in the intersection of geeks and artists. I do computer stuff as my day job, visual arts as a hobby, and extreme sports as a way to keep life exciting.

I value creativity and art in general. Especially, I have a passion for visual arts. I think a lot about our perception of beauty.

I try to take care of my body and mind. I like outdoor activities and being in touch with nature. I enjoy hiking, camping, running at the beach, snorkeling etc. Oh and I love animals! I have had many pets but sadly I have no pets at the moment.

I enjoy intellectual conversations. Random topics are welcome! A random topic can be "Whether true random phenomena exist?".

I try to enjoy life and experience new things every now and then. I like to think that I am improving myself in different aspects as I get older.

I'm constantly thinking where I should travel next! suggestions are more than welcome :)

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I couch surf, host, meetup, and host CS events regularly. I love to meet new cultured, open-minded, and intellectual people. Majority of people I have met on couchsurfing have been awesome people and have influenced my life for the better :-)

If you are in town, consider joining one of our bi-weekly awesome Westside Pool Parties (WPP). We have them on 1st and 3rd Fridays of evey month!
Look them up under the events search (http://goo.gl/qAD9CG)

If they are full (and they usually are), just stay tuned and we will add more spots to the events as it gets closer to the day of the event.

Movies:
Anything with complex stories, original ideas and pleasing visuals would be cool. To name a few: Braveheart, Devil's Advocate, The Matrix, Inception, Fight Club, Se7en, Black Swan, The Butterfly Effect, Shutter Island, Face/Off, Memento, 300, Sin City, and all animated movies (because that's what I did during grad school!)

Music:
I listen to all types of music and it mostly depends on the mood/occasion but if I have to pick some bands they would be: Metallica, Muse, Evanescence, Pink Floyd, P.O.D., Guns'n Roses, Anathema, Enigma, Sting, Vangelis, ...

Food:
Anything that is healthy! I like Thai, Italian, Mexican, Persian, Indian, Ethiopian, etc! I can add Salmon, Avocado, blue cheese to basically anything. And I like my food spicy!

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

The most important aspect of couchsurfing for me is the cultural exchange. You will learn a lot when you get to know people with different views, habits, life styles, goals and ambitions. I usually have great conversations with my hosts and guests and end up learning a lot from them :-)
