ABOUT ME

Gay vegatarian polygot who likes to climb and travel. Books on spirituality and finance pique my interest.

I lived in Hong Kong for two years during university but my favourite city in the world is Portland, Oregon.

Favourite Blogs

Mr. Money Moustache, Early Retirement Extreme, Joshua Kennon

PHILOSOPHY

Buddhist Stoic vegetarian -- what goes around comes around. A little bit of Buddha, a little bit of Seneca. :) I also love Thich Nhat Hanh's teachings and practice the Plum Village tradition.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would like to host and surf. It's all about reciprocity.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had plenty of opportunities to couchsurf informally with several friends throughout Europe (2004), Israel (2011), Canada, and the USA (2012 - present).

I would simply like to return the favour!
