I haven't used couch surfing as much as Airbnb, but, I like the idea of it. I made this photo of me which my friend took on a polaroid at burning man in an installation by sending it through deepdream.com along with a filter seed image of a fire burning a short-story from a writing event I hosted for a short time on my patio where the rules were: "1. Everyone must write a story and read it, 2. All stories must be put into the fire before leaving."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like the idea of decommodified travel.

Interests

I enjoy learning what other people enjoy spending their time on. I really enjoy wandering because oftentimes the best things I've found have been things I didn't even know I was looking for. I like gravity sports & mostly the same as anyone else. I'm interested in the future of Taiwan & the surrounding globe which is why I'm living here.

Music, Movies, and Books

Live music with improvisation, electronic music outside or in a clean venue. I mainly watch blockbuster movies if I have a chance or if it's a smaller film on someone's recommendation. For example, my brother introduced me to Waking Life which I ended up watching because I like Boyhood & I found the animation style really fun for a conversational container. I usually end up with more downloaded books than I can read, but, right now I'd put this book here in case you might actually read it: "Out of Nothing, Everything."

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I survived an attempted first-degree murder by yelling at someone until they felt bad after the battery and left.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share games if there's every any down-time in the travels. Recently I want to play my Zendo set.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories, laughter, good vibes.
