About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to experience all facets of life and make connections with all types of people...and to dance and be silly.

ABOUT ME

I am a person who loves life and having fun. I strive to have as many experiences as possible because I believe our experiences link us and nurture understanding. I try to live my life without being constricted by social norms but I also understand why social construction is important and amazing. Simple and strange things in life make me smile/giggle. Complex things make me muse, until I realize they are simple and strange...smile/giggle...repeat. . I am fascinated by the universe we live in. On any given day, you might find me reading, writing, watching K-dramas, dance battling (dancing in general), hiking, cycling, boxing, performing social experiments, studying languages, listening to music, going to festivals, zombie pub crawling, playing sports, or at the nore bang, etc.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My participation in the CS project has been limited to being hosted and meeting with other CSers visiting my area or when travelling. I hope to host CSers when I have a suitable place. I am available to meet with CSers that are passing through :) I love meeting interesting people and entertaining.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I backpacked with my friend through out a large chunk of India. He was a CSer and found two wonderful CSers that allowed us to stay at their homes in Deli and Mumbai. I am so thankful to both of our hosts. Our host in Deli was an amazing, interesting....party animal haha; our host in Mumbai let us stay with his family, introduced us too his religion, life style and delicious Indian street sandwiches. I will never forget Ravi driving us in his car, blasting music, while zig zagging effortlessly through the heavy Deli traffic peppered with cows while it was pouring rain. After my Indian experience, I joined CS and meet wonderful CSers all over Asia.
