CURRENT MISSION

The only way to truly know a place is through its people. I want to know places in the world not by the sites, but by the people that live there and I want to provide surfers with a non-superficial view of where I live.

ABOUT ME

I am open-minded, joyous, spontaneous and exploratory. I love getting to know cities through the residents' eyes rather than through a strictly outsiders' perspective. I want people to experience the same thing when they come to my hometown or current place of residence. I really love different perspectives and would love to be able to do show surfers things about my home that they may normally not discover or notice. The best way to know a place is through its people, that is what I believe, the philosophy I use when I am traveling and the thing I keep in mind while hosting/representing my town.

PHILOSOPHY

Live joyously.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I enjoy the community and the immediate bonds that exist between couch surfers. Conversations with fellow surfers have provided me opportunities to discover places that I’ve never been. I also love seeing my town through the eyes of someone who has never been here before, and each surfer renews my sense of adventure and makes me want to go see the places that they have been for myself!

兴趣
