About Me

Fabricated in Shanghai, I then left for college. I'm pretty easy-going and open-minded. Always try to embrace the differences and be positive about any hardships life can throw me.

Traveling connects me with people, culture and nature. Of those three, people probably bring the most wonders.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people who travel with eyes open, who have opinions and experiences that they share. To offer a hand to travelers when they need help. I believe in the spirit of CS, which is more than finding a free place to stay, or the boldness of doing something risky.

I appreciate authenticity.

Interests

Outdoors, urban living, both are truly fascinating. Snowboarding makes the cooler days easier to live through. I'm pretty good at waxing cars, especially in the shade on a brilliant summer day.

I spend time crashing one place multiple times if there's a connection. Doesn't mean I'd reject chances to explore new wonders. All times I try to absorb local lifestyle and culture. Write postcards, eat sushi, eat cheese, and eat more sushi.

There is something about alcohol that upsets my stomach. But I survived. I'm still capable of buying you a beer.

Music, Movies, and Books

My taste of music is all over the places, and it evolves over time. I found myself replaying ODESZA a lot. Sometime I dance to EDM. Sometimes I chill with classic reggae. No, I don't have 420 in my Bob Marley pajama pants.

Show+Movies: 卧虎藏龙,天下无双,The Green Book, Fight Club, Top Gear/Grand Touring, Chef's Table, Sherlock, HIMYM, Batman (Nolan’s), Grand Budapest, Pulp Fictions, 007, Pirates of Caribbean, Cirque du Soleil... Sometimes I'm in documentary mood.

Books: Not a book worm, but I try to read more. Blood Meridian was cool.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiked "The Stairway to Heaven" before sunrise, and night-dived to see devil fish after sunset on the same day. That was in Hawaii. I thought it was quite a day :P.

What I Can Share with Hosts
