CURRENT MISSION

"Freedom from the desire for an answer is essential to the understanding of a problem"-krishnamurti

ABOUT ME

i'm a lover of life, a film junkie, and i am always trying to check out a new pub, or a new restaurant, a new recipe, or route or band and basically everything.

PHILOSOPHY

as I try to figure out what I want to do with my life, this is how I feel usually:
"I like too many things and get all confused and hung-up running from one falling star to another till I drop. This is the night, what it does to you. I had nothing to offer anybody except my own confusion." Jack Kerouac, On the Road.
Well...I like to think that I can offer some humor and pleasant company, maybe a dinner even?

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was fortunate enough to be hosted by CS members on my travels two summers ago and the great experiences I had have made me a total believer and advocate of this project. Upon my return to the states, I hosted a number of visitors to LA and had a blast.
This past year I have been working a job that makes my schedule inopportune for hosting, but I am excited to surf again on my trip to France and Barcelona, and hopefully will be able to host within the near future.
