CURRENT MISSION

Learning to learn, Experiencing to understand.

ABOUT ME

I'm a pretty chill guy and love a good conversation. I find that I am respectful, clean, cordial, and helpful. On many occasions, I like good drink, good food, and most of all: good company.

Sometimes I can also be funny. But only sometimes...

PHILOSOPHY

Be open, be respectful, be kind.

Additionally: eat, drink, and be merry.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

While I can't host anyone at my location at the moment, I am certainly willing to do so whenever I move to my own place as it would be amazing to meeting new people and show them around.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Only on friends' couches as of yet. Perhaps the next friend is you?

兴趣

I enjoy studying the history and culture of different places and times which is part of the reason why I became a teacher. I also like spending my free time working on different projects (horticulture, programming, etc.) as well as going out to explore different locations. Learning different ways to cook and prepare foods is also a passion of mine.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

China: Seeing and climbing a section of the Great Wall of China. The effort and work that it took to create this wall is an amazing marvel of a feat and awe-inspiring to see.

Seattle: Beautiful city filled with city life in combination with green trees and amazing lakes. While the city seems always on the edge of rainfall, it leaves an amazing backdrop of the beauty of a modern North America.

Recently: I visited Manzanar, California recently, which was the site of an internment camp the US government set-up during World War II to intern Americans of Japanese descent. Not much stands there today, but the memorialization of this desert-prison-turned-livable-space-then-back-to-desert creates a place and time and emotion of those people who were once forced to live there.
