CURRENT MISSION

Seeing and doing more things

ABOUT ME

I spend most of my time fighting juggernauts, reading large books, talking and eating. I like traveling and living out of a backpack.

PHILOSOPHY

Life should be an endless pursuit of knowledge and experience.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Have hosted mostly Germans but also Canadian, Austrian, Spanish, Korean and French peeps.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

My band traveled to Japan for a 3-week tour in 2008. We drove overnight from Osaka to Tokyo and I awoke in the back seat around 8am. As we came out of a tunnel and rounded a bend in the road, a snow-capped Mt. Fuji appeared right in front of us. It was one of the coolest things I've ever seen, second only to the Milky Way galaxy belt on a clear night in the countryside.

My band also toured Java in Indonesia and visited some places that are as far off the tourist map as can possibly be. This was a truly special experience.
