CURRENT MISSION

to live in 5 different countries and to have some degree of fluency in Korean

ABOUT ME

I am a morning person and I drink coffee often. I love doing anything outdoors. Hate blackout curtains, fluorescent lighting, and extreme/unnecessary air-con.

I love exploration (urban or wilderness), heights, finding interesting hole-in-the-wall places. I'm trying to get over my fear of water; my goal is to go diving in 10 countries.

I'm mostly vegetarian and I like to exercise, go biking, go hiking, and do yoga. Just starting to get into meditation, too.

I'm not into the bar scene, so if you want to go out, you're most likely on your own.

PHILOSOPHY

If you're not having fun, you're doing it wrong.

Social support and community is probably the #1 factor in human happiness. I try to surround myself with people who share this perspective.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I really love community, Today You Tomorrow Me, learning about other cultures, and meeting people from around the world.

Música, películas y libros

Not really into movies with foreign films being the exception. I read basically anything. I like chill music. I can play ukulele (kind of) and piano (kind of).

Algo increíble que he hecho

Cycling east to west across the bridge into Minneapolis. Fijian sky after a tsunami. Kava-filled island music jam session in Nadi, Fiji. Homebrew-filled folk music jam session at Holden Village in the Cascades of Washington state. Waterfalls outside Milford Sound. New Years Eve 2012 on Oahu. Cycling through Taipei at night. Getting my PADI open-water certification. Sunrise hike over Yeong-do Island, Korea.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I love drawing, painting, and photography. I also have a passion for learning languages, although I am only fluent in English (for now). I can teach you the basics of ukulele. I want to learn any things about any other cultures, especially language, history of language, and religions.
