Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just trying to be more active with a more wholesome and possibly random traveling experience. Thought I'll check out this whole couchsurfing idea. Just starting with it.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Met a number of couchsurfers throughout my trip but didn't sleep anywhere there. Staying in a hostel in Vienna now. Was in Bratislava. Before that was in Italy. Was in London before that. Pretty good time there. No one hosted me but met a lot of couchsurfers through local events and made a few friends.Had some good experiences on the Isle of Man presently. Had my first experience on September 17, 2011 when Bao from Portland, Oregon showed me around the city and the Columbia River Gorge for two days. Overall, it was pretty good!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seen some CEOs and astronauts but being around Houston maybe not too extraordinary. =) Now what I want to see is the Northern Lights, the South Pole, and outer space. Gotta work on that.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach some coding or aerospace knowledge. I can also teach English and Chinese as well as some photography. I want to learn more about languages and cultures around the world.
