A strange young man on a journey to understand and put his identity into perspective.

Born in Seattle, WA, USA but my parents were born in Vietnam.
Currently living in Shanghai, China.

My parents have done so much for me, however they have always been worried about me going out on my own. I guess that has rubbed off on me because I've taken a lot of time to try to figure out who I am (cliche, I know) and what I mean to myself. Living in Shanghai by myself has given me immense perspective on not only the lives of others but also my own. I have learned a lot and I crave to learn more. Just trying to continue to improve myself as human being. And I'd love to meet people along the way.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think that fear has the ability to be the greatest motivator if you allow yourself to embrace it. Getting out of my comfort zone is the quickest way for me to learn. What better way to get uncomfortable than to go experience something unfamiliar? I just want to listen to and share things with others!

Interests

I really enjoy dancing! I am not the best by any means, but I love moving my body. I mostly do hip hop, but open to learning new styles! I like to cut loose and act goofy. Sometimes I may talk too much or laugh too loudly but if I'm with other people while doing so, it makes me happy. Sports is a big + too. Super active.

• photography
• dancing
• socializing
• sports
• skating

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a fan of hip-hop, pop, alternative music. But honestly, anything with a good beat is cool.
If you like martial arts films, then let's talk.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I moved to Shanghai, China after I graduated high school to start at a brand new university, knowing nothing about China. Greatest decision of my life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to longboard and how to dance without fear (if you don't want to dance like a fool, you can watch me)! I'm open to learning anything and I love sharing stories with people!

What I Can Share with Hosts

If you are comfortable enough to share your home with me, I am comfortable enough to share with you my honest thoughts and willingness to open up! I love to listen to people.
