我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We've hosted, and we've been good guests. :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Gary lived in Asia/Micronesia for about ten years - teaching here and there - and he lived in or stayed in huts and houses of every size. We've hosted a few times and surfed several times. There are lots of cool people out there. Almost all of our experiences have been very positive ones.

兴趣

Gary: Philosophy, Eastern Religions, Noam Chomsky, travel, language, and reading.

Yee-chen: Most things connected with China (language, literature, culture, education, and especially food).

Ray: Chess, tennis, and Ping-Pong.

Movies:

Gary: "Close to Eden" is his favorite.

Yee-chen and Ray: ????

Music:

Yee-chen doesn't usually listen to music. Ray's still developing his tastes. Gary loves music.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Gary was a Peace Corps Volunteer 20+ years ago. He built a bamboo hut beside a river, learned the local language, helped some people, and made some friends.

Yee-chen walked from Myanmar to Thailand.

Ray became (and is) one of the best chess players in the world for his age group.

教，学，和分享

Ray can teach chess. Yee-chen's specialty is Chinese. Gary can teach you how to juggle.

As for learning, we're open to whatever you have to offer.
