About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I am just starting to explore the possibilities with couchsurfing and meeting new friends from across the globe.

ABOUT ME

I think I'm really cool guy and so do my friends. I am very fun and always excited about life! I don't mind a bit of danger and will never complain about food since it is a pleasure to try new cuisines/dishes. I will help you see a new perspective on your culture if you host me and I am polite, honest, and clean. Thank you, hope to meet you soon!

PHILOSOPHY

Don't have one yet. I guess it is that you must be realistic and within that scope, do the most amazing things you can!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am just starting. Actually I have hosted travelers for a long time before signing up for couchsurfing.org, so this is a new way for me to experience hospitality and meet amazing people now that I am abroad.

Interests

Running, listening to music, relaxing, working,drawing, learning new languages and eating new foods. I especially like being toured through new areas because it is at the moment when I feel pure excitement.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Tampopo, Smoke Signals, The Fast Runner, Apocolypto, Harold and Maud, almost anything with Christopher Walkin cause he is creepy and hilarious!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Saw President Obama speech live in person, ran 40 miles in one day just before graduating from college, moved to Hong Kong with no job, but lots of support from a great girlfriend and gradually found my way to success.

Teach, Learn, Share

It doesn't matter if you are intelligent in a book-sense or have a good education. I believe in the wisdom of idiots. Mostly I like people who are willing to listen and share themselves. If you are willing to share, you must have something valuable.

Countries I’ve Visited

Indonesia, Mexico

Countries I’ve Lived In

China, United States
