I usually go by Johnny but it is pronounced John-Yi if you are wondering. Most of the time, I am a pretty shy person but once I get comfortable, I can go a little crazy. People generally say I have a good sense of humor but I got to warn you that it can get racy and crude so don't mind me. My parents immigrated from China to Alaska and stayed there ever since. I have lived in Anchorage most my life although I went to the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. I received a Psych degree there and I am now using it to assist the formerly homeless who are severely mentally ill as a case manager. Other than that, I don't know what else to say. Just ask and I might provide a answer.

Now that I have the means to go out and see the world on my own, I would like to use this app to meet new people and find things to do with places I am not too familiar with.

Music, Movies, and Books

Various rock, hip-hop, and EDM artists. I am a fan of action, comedy, dramas, and horror movies but mainly tend to watch TV shows. I don't have the attention span to read books. If I were to make a list of specific artists, movies, and shows, I would say : Red Hot Chili Peppers, The Bloody Beetroots, ASAP Mob, The Weekend, Eminem's older stuff, Queens of the Stone Age, Drake, Kill the Noise, Justice, Boys Noize, Marvel Films, John Wick, Mad Max:Fury Road, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Rick and Morty, and Stranger Things.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Can't really think of anything that amazing but I rode a bike up and down a mountain filled with jagged rocks. It was nerve racking but forgot the name of the trail. It is Rabbit Creek near Anchorage I think.

Teach, Learn, Share

Even though English is supposedly my second language, I am way more fluent in English than Cantonese but I can teach you some simple stuff. I took Spanish from high school to college but got pretty burnt out of it and haven't practiced in awhile. I can share with you my job experiences which can be morbidly humorous and also beer/food/etc. I try to keep a open mind so I wouldn't mind learning what ever you have to teach. It can be retouching on the languages mentioned above, new languages, a skill, or what ever.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I tend to be pretty generous for the most part so I don't mind chipping in for events. It can be a round beers, a meal, or even a pre-roll.
