About Me

Just jumped on CouchSurfing for the first time this May as I got to Europe from teaching English in Vietnam. On my way home, taking the scenic route, and I'd love to tell you about it, and get to know unique individuals. I'm really easy to live with and like to walk around the city all day, and take it easy by night with friends. It's a big world, let's make it a bit smaller. Cheers!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people and learn about new cities in ways I never could otherwise.

Interests

  • hiking
  • basketball
  • travel
  • reading and writing

Music, Movies, and Books

You can catch me listening to Red Hot Chili Peppers most days, but I love most music.

I love any movie by Quentin Tarintino.

Favorite books: Aldous Huxley's "Island," Catch-22, and Jack Keroac's "The Road" and "Dharma Bums"

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I lived in Vietnam for nearly a year--that's a lot of rice I've eaten. Amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

If you'd like, I'll teach you how they drink (and count) in Vietnam: it's the same! They say "One, Two, Three, Go!" I'll share anything else you'd like to know if you're planning a trip to SE Asia, too.

I can share a best attempt to cook and accepting standards if you're not the next Guy Feire. Happy to split the bills and contribute anyway I can.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good company and spirits, some stories and pictures, plenty of travel recs for SE Asia, a genuine interest in learning about culture, and a small token of appreciation, of course!

Countries I’ve Visited

Austria, Canada, France, Hong Kong, Italy, Laos, Myanmar, Taiwan, Thailand, Viet Nam

Countries I’ve Lived In

United States, Viet Nam
