I'm originally from Bangkok, Thailand. I lived in the USA for 7 years. I graduated from the University of Minnesota with a chemical engineering degree. Right now I'm doing a Master's in Sustainable Energy Futures at the Imperial College London. I really like traveling. I enjoy learning about new culture, seeing new things, and meeting new people. My dream is to live outside of my comfort zone and become a real "citizen of the world".

I'm passionate about backpacking because it's the simplest type of traveling. I get to be a stranger and I can do anything I want. Having only one backpack makes me feel like nothing is THAT important. It always reminds me that the most important thing is not the stuff I carry but the stuff in my head and my heart.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to meet new people and learn new culture. I want to have friends from all over the world. I want to hear the stories I've never heard and share my own stories to the people I've never met before.

Interests

I'm interested in learning about new culture. I'm also interested in some nerdy stuff like Math, Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Biology, Philosophy, Psychology, Politics, Economics, Art, Music, Photography, Yoga, Nature, Animals, etc.
