About Me

Hello world! I'm Peter.

I live in San Francisco and work in tech as a UX designer. I've been couchsurfing for years, and it's taken me all over the world, meeting so many kind, incredible, interesting people. Maybe you'll be the next person I meet.

When I'm not traveling, I enjoy cooking, reading, exploring new neighborhoods in my city, taking photos, playing music. All sorts of stuff.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is evidence that you can rely on the kindness of strangers and not be disappointed. I love to receive that kindness and pass it along!

Interests

Some things about me, in no particular order:

I've been playing violin since I was 5.
I once quit my job to start a music research project on the Thai-Myanmar border.
I have perfect pitch.
I once ran a half marathon (and I have zero desire to run a full).
I read about 20 books a year.

Music, Movies, and Books

I've been digging this 60s/70s psychadelic Cambodian rock Spotify playlist recently.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Rock climbing in Olympos, Turkey with a bunch of Australian dudes we met that morning. They said they found some secret route from their local guides. Pretty sure we almost died a few times, but it was worth it.

Teach, Learn, Share

If you happen to have a violin, ukulele, or piano, I'm happy to show you what I know!
