CURRENT MISSION

Life is choice! I choose to live in the edge, live hard, work hard, play hard!

ABOUT ME

I get high from the novelty of going to new places, meeting new people, and discovering new culture. There are so many places in this world I have not yet visited and I am so excited to explore more.

I am currently living in Portland but I am nomad as I move from countries to countries every few years (Asia next!). In Portland I love love love hiking and being in the nature. I love hanging out with friends and couchsurfers, go out to silent dance, esthetic dance, and do trampoline dodgeball. I am so up to exploring new, hippy, and weird (but fun) activities in Portland!

I am passionate about providing free education to children especially in developing and under developing countries. I co-founded a non-profit organization giving scholarships to children in Indonesia (www.hoshi-zora.org ) so I love spending my time working on these projects.

PHILOSOPHY

Pay it Forward!

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I first hosted my couchsurfers in 2006 when I lived in Japan, and now I am still keeping in touch with them! When I travel, couchsurfing just bring my experience to another awesome level. Currently in Portland, I live in a couchsurfing house called the "Lolligagger Palace". I live with 5 other people who love couchsurfing and we love spending time with our surfers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met some of my best friends now from Couchsurfing, I met amazing inspiring people who filled my life with joy! I have been amazed on how awesome the couchsurfing communities all over the world are. Whenever I hosted or couchsurfed, people are always generous in sharing their space, time, and stories and I would love to pay it forward!
