I am a Chinese American served as American military officer, currently is jobless. (Retired) I also work at home.

In my previous life, (Buddhist theory I am not a Buddhist )
I taught college physics, calculus and electronics.

All my kids are finished college with master and doctoral degrees.
My son is a medical doctor (M.D.) in USA.

Since I am jobless now, I have more time to explore God's creation.

I am also a certified advanced scuba diver. Maybe we can dive together if you are interested.

I also like to explore nature and look at museums.
Love to travel around the world to meet new friends.
I have been in few countries in Europe, Kiev, Kharkiv Odesa, Lviv, Brody, Ukraine, Warsaw Krakow,Poland, Budapest, Hungary, Vienna, Austria, Brno, Prague Czech Republic, to be continued...

Life is short to just stay in one place.
I have been in many places.
Hope that some day I will be in your country to meet you.
Maybe we can backpack together to share food and culture.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Now I have more free time, I like to make friends around the world and hoping to learn knowledge from people around the world

Saving money traveling around the world to make new friends are the best way to travel. But my God will always provided.

Learning new culture and new food are wonderful, but most importantly new friendships are for life.

You maybe the light to shine on my life and we can share different things, knowledge, care. concern and love...

Knowing people and their culture from different countries are priceless that is money cannot buy and no school can teach that.

Staying in hotel, motel, hustle will never have this chance to learn.
Again, friendship is the most important to me.
I have made few new friends in Ukraine.

As the Chinese proverb said, it is very difficult to fine ONE true friend in one's life time. I am hoping to find this ONE friend.
I hope that I am the ONE friend and you are that ONE friend to me.

If not, we can still be friend.
Please feel free to contact me, even we have never met.
Ask me any question. Or invite me to your country.

Walking in the Fall, holding hands with loved one when all the leaves are turning red and yellow, it is a very beautiful sense.
