Let's hang out if you like DIY stuff, beer, building stuff, gardening, bees, weapons of all sorts, mopeds and bicycles. Typical Portlandia stuff.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've surfed so far and hosted way back in 2012: a fine gentleman from Hong Kong and then a couple of Spanish girls who thought it was OK to let some dude crash at my place without asking me. Other than that, my roommate Seth hosted a bunch of Koreans and ONLY spoke to them in Korean so I didn't get to know them at all.

音乐、电影和书籍

Don't really listen to music anymore as I'm can't read and listen to songs with lyrics at the same time.

Favorite book has to be Survivor by Chuck Palahniuk although any of his stuff is a good read.

Music is really something best for the car and I haven't owned one (or needed one) in nearly six years.

Studying Underground Economies (Sudhir Venkatesh does a good one in Chicago)

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Amazing! Wow... that's a big pair of shoes to fill.

Ah, OK. I took a war tourism trip to Aleppo for a couple of days in 2013. That was AMAZING. It was before the barrel bombs and back when the Islamic State didn't control the road from Aleppo to Azaz.

The lame part is that I didn't back up some of my better footage of the trips.
