Hi, I am Jon. I am 23 and from Hong Kong. I am guitarist and musician. trying to be a singer songwriter. Although I am not very good at singing but I am working on it! I studied at Musician Institute at Los Angeles when I was 18 for 2 years.
I am Libra so I am pretty 2 sided person. It's hard for me to open myself up but I love others opening up to me. I am quiet person but I can be talkative once we started a talk. I will focus on something I really interested in but I can get distract easily. I consider myself as a dour/dark personality but sometimes I would say I am kind to others? (Although I know I don't really look like friendly)

I am also a curious person. I seek knowledge. So beside music, I am also very interested in histories, psychology, philosophy, astronomy, architecture, and maybe more if I am exposed to new topics.

Now, I want to explore the world while I am still young. I am traveling with just a little bit of money but I am trying to travel around the whole Europe. And I believe I will find a way to survive throughout the whole trip, I have faith in me :)
And that is my current status and I am pretty sure it will be one of the greatest thing I will accomplish in my life!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

THE MOST IMPORTANT THING, is to share culture and thoughts with people that actually live in the country! Hands down for the best way to get to know the culture, people and the real experience of the countries!
Third, is to make friends around the globe. We are living in a globalize world now. And what's better to more friends? And another reason to re-visit a country too!

Music, Movies, and Books

Is hard to pick my favorite kind of music genre tho, cuz I love a varies kind of music. I love Rock, Metal, Funk, Soul, RnB, old school Hip Hop, Blues, Jazz, Pop. I love all of them! I could talk about music all day cuz I am a musician!

For movie, I love Christopher Nolan, Tim Burton, Quentin Tarantino movies. Those are my favorite directors. I also like superhero movies. I would love to watch more different kind of classic movies! Please introduce me to those! I love the Godfathers! lol I don't really like horror movies...However I still watch it if my friend force me to watch. :p

I like to read, same as my preference on music and movies, I also like different kind of books. I read novels, short essays, philosophy, art and others I don't know how to categorize.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Umm.....I would say I once drove my car from LA to NY. And then go back from NY to LA! Haha that's long story I would love to share with you!
Oh! And I also went skydiving beside The Grand Canyon once! That was amazing.

Other than that I can't really think about another really AMAZING thing I could proudly show off. That's why I am now traveling Europe with no money and try to survive by earning money along by playing my guitar! And once I finish this long trip I will proudly put on 'I traveled around Europe without money'!
