My name is Lawrence!

I enjoy working out, coffee, pondering about life/investments, and most recently -- start ups!

After experiencing how much I changed and grown after moving to NYC after living in California most of life, I realized that how much perspective I was missing out on without seeing more of the world. Thus, what better time than now to start?

I love exploring coffee shops, beautiful scenery, and speaking with open-minded people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love traveling because it helps gives me perspective. The easiest way to gain perspective is to meet people and understand their views.
