About Me

***WARNING - EXTREMELY UNCONVENTIONAL COUCHSURFING HOST! READ *EVERYTHING-EVERYWHERE* VERY CAREFULLY SO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE IN FOR!***

Hello hello hello! I am Shane Zhou, the best rookie Couchsurfing host you’ll ever have met! Unlike other snobbish and disgruntled folks, I really don’t mind nor care if you need a “free AirBnB” to crash for the night. I’d be more than happy to host you regardless! However…

… IF YOU STEAL MY FOOD, TAKE A #%?& ON THE FLOOR, MAKE POLICEMEN OR THE FBI/CIA COME, TRY TO MURDER OR CRIPPLE ME, RUIN OR ROB MY POSSESSIONS, I WILL BEAT YOUR @$$ AND MAKE YOU WISH YOU WERE NEVER BORN OR DEAD RATHER THAN HANGING ONTO YOUR LAST BREATH WHEN I’M THROUGH WITH YOU🤬☠️😠

… however, I know you’re a cool person who is nice and compassionate and understanding of how everything works that we’re not gonna have a problem with each other… rrrrrriiigggggghhhhttttt???? 😇🖤😈

(You will also need to look for a PASSWORD located somewhere on this account - if you do not message me with the password… whoooooooo booooooiiiizzzzz….. MWWWWWAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA🤡👻👹)

-(This section below is moreso about me as a person and not so much a Couchsurfing host)-
Hello! I am deep into a journey of reaching enlightenment and empowerment as as such, I have done many things in my life such as Next Level, ISTA, Mankind Project, and more. My end goal is to become a world renowned humanitarian, in the same pantheon as Nelson Mandela, MLK Jr or Gandhi.

I believe that the universe has granted me the life I've liven to experience its beauty, and in return, I give back to it by giving my all, unhindered by resistance and fear, so I can live that which my heart joys in.

Before I die, I would also will have a well established international nonprofit devoted to social change and improvement across the world so that while my time on Earth has passed, I can rest safe and sound that others will make a difference after the time I have spent on this planet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

***AS A HOST***
Because I’m a ratchet@$$ mother@&%#er who loves to party and I want to instill that energy to other party people 🎊🎉🥳

***AS A GUEST***
It is important to me to know places and cities from the locals perspective versus cheesy tourist hotspots and the like! I also believe it's a great way to travel and you get to see life from the real perspective versus an illusion and it's wonderful hearing the stories of others. I believe friends last a lifetime and I would love to meet everyone if I could!

I also want to help and promote the Couchsurfing community which supports going out of your comfort zone, cultural awareness, understanding and prosperity. I will meet beautiful people all over the world and to share and for everyone else to share their stories and experiences so we can understand all the world's perspectives. "I won't tell you; I'll *show* you" is a mantra I firmly believe in.

I don't do this for shelter (otherwise, instead of Couchsurfing, I'd get shelter via a hostel or hotel or the streets, which I've done before! Interesting stories about sleeping on subways and shelters and etc!). If I requested you, it's because you're a cool and one-of-a-kind person and seeing the world from your perspective would provide me with great gratitude.

Interests

I love traveling, and I'm always on the lookout for the best restaurants, bars and nightclubs. I think music is a great way for people to connect and especially on the dancefloor where people are free to express their bodies and souls. And festivals are AWESOME - music brings everyone together!

Music, Movies, and Books

I love house music (especially disco, funky, and Latin house) and all things British ESPECIALLY UK garage and drum and bass and trance. I also love reading and books, and OBSESSED with Romanticism (Lord Byron, Alexander Dumas, Jane Austen, Herman Melville, Ralph Waldo Emerson, etc). And of course, personal development and relationships like Mantak Chia, Robert Greebe, David Deida, Tony Robbins, Grant Cardone and etc. I not much of a movie guy (I do enjoy them - it's just other things occupy my time like restaurants and nightclubs), but I love Il Postino!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once biked from Madison to Milwaukee. One of the most majestic experiences ever - even grander than climbing the Great Wall of China. If I do it again, it'll be for a record time!

Teach, Learn, Share

Grab life by the reigns and always follow your gut. It's right for a reason!

The stuff I'm versed in and would share about would be relationships, motivation, confidence, Romanticism, life, connection, love, nightlife, dance, food and random trivia. But especially random trivia.

I would like to learn all the dances of the world, whether they are solo or with other people. Not to mention cooking - as much a I love going to restaurants, I do enjoy making my own food too! Just want to do all the crazy and complicated recipes and techniques and all.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Whether it's a great time, entertainment, or even a few chores or gifts from where I'm at like chocolates and flowers, I'm down! Many people say I have the best and most memorable conversations and have shared valuable lessons and learning. To say the least, there will be a little bit more color to your life in the time we'll meet :)
