CURRENT MISSION

Finish Grad School, get a real job after graduation, and keep enojying life :-)

ABOUT ME

I love the life, love to laugh, and go on trips and go do things without much planning! Love to improvize on the go. Love challenges. Love to work hard.

I currently live in Southern Illinois, and I love this area! There's a lot of great outdoor places to go for hiking, rock-climbing, kayaking, and just relaxing :-)

I'm almost done with my MS in Manufacturing Systems / Quality Engineering at Southern Illinois University at Carbondale.

PHILOSOPHY

Personal philosophy? Well, I try to keep learning new things and just enjoy life. I'm Christian, and that's the biggest thing I can say about my personal philosophy.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed in Washington DC for half week with Kevin and Ryan. Hosted Rob in Southern IL, and that's pretty much all my experience yet.
I'd be happy to show you around So IL, just let me know if you are ever in the area, and I would be happy to host you :-)

兴趣

I love sports. So if you play tennis, v-ball (sand v-ball in the summer), soccer or any other sport, and plan to stay at my place, we should definitely play :-) I love camping, kayaking and hiking, and if you're in Southern IL area in the summer, that's always fun to do as well and I would definitely go with ya.

I'm very active, and love going and doing things... I like trying anything new, especially if it keeps me active :-)

Hey, if you go (or plan on going) on a motorcycle road trip in US Midwest, let me know, I would definitely join you (schedule permitting) on my bike.

I'd like to get a powered paraglider (PPG) one day, and start flying :-) But I'll have to wait until graduation, so that I could save up some money.

音乐、电影和书籍

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I left my home country and my parent's house when I was 17 years old, and moved to an opposite side of the globe, to the country where I didn't know anyone and whose language I didn't quite comprehend :-) And I live in the U.S. to this day, and I really really enjoy it :-) That was definitely a life changing experience :-)
