About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To get the most of meeting new people and seeking new opportunities!

ABOUT ME

As far as traveling and meeting new people and learning about new places goes, I'm all for it. I like expanding my knowledge on whatever comes across my way.

I've traveled all over the States thanks to my family and friends over the years, but I haven't been international that much. I hope to change that and thanks to couch surfing, it will be a lot more convenient.

PHILOSOPHY

You only live life once. Live it to the fullest and in moderation.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had a great time couchsurfing with people in China, Japan, and South Korea (2010). I hosted in DC (2011) and looking forward to hosting in Oakland (2011-present) and surfing other places (2011-present) as soon as I get the chance.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Overnight climb of Mt. Fuji to see the sunrise from the top. Twas spectacular.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love doing the simple things for other people, and when other people do the simple things for me. It doesn't take a lot to show that you care and respect someone else, and it doesn't have to be a huge gesture, but just a gesture in general.
