CURRENT MISSION

To TAKE OVER THE WORL.. I mean, make new friends!

ABOUT ME

Since I was a young handsome charming witty chubby little boy, I wanted to grow up and be just like my idol - MacGyver. If you are the 99.7% of the world who don't know MacGyver, well you're obviously not as cool as me! However, if I deem you cool enough, I might teach you a thing or two about MacGyver!

In all seriousness (whatever that means), I'm just another kid in the world who never wants to grow up. I've been to 23 countries, of which I throughly enjoyed 21 of them (sorry Afghanistan and North Korea). I enjoy long walks on the beach over a sunset, as well as home cooking and fine wine. I know a little bit about everything, and a lot about Japanese Romantic Literature. One of the things in this paragraph about me is untrue, drinks on me if you guess which one!

PHILOSOPHY

As MacGyver says: "Brace yourself! This could be fun..."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

The only thing I love more than traveling is to meet new friends. I'm here for either or!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm known as a professional Formula 1 couch surfer in the United Couch Surfer Association of America. I'm also the only member of the United Couch Surfer Association of America. Memberships now available!

Interests

I have a particular fondness for: blueberry yogurt, triscuits, candy corn, honey, melon pan, rice balls, baclava, hortchata, merlot, ginger ale, orange juice (squeezed, not from concentrate), biking, the ocean, shopping at outlets, not working out, road tripping, food touring, wine touring, climbing (anything), hiking, repelling, talking, listening (more than talking), wondering around (some people say I get lost, but I like to say I explore), soft blankets, netflix marathons, showing people secret spots in SF, and of course MacGyver!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been fortunate enough to meet people from all around the world, from all walks of life. And the more I've seen how people are different, the more I see how we are all the same.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, since I grew up idolizing MacGyver, I can pretty much improvise just about anything and everything. With some duck tape, paper clips and chewing gum, I may or may not save the world.

It's most likely a may not... but that's what they said about MacGyver!

Lessons Learn: from my fellow CSers

1. Bring warm clothing just in case, SD is surprisingly cold this time of the year round.

2. Bring comfortable shoes /saddles.

3. Can never go wrong with having a nice beach blanket.
