CURRENT MISSION

Helping immigrants and families

ABOUT ME

I moved to Chicago 4 years ago. Since then I created a trading company in multiple states across the US. Then I decided to move in a different direction. I started to help exchange students. Organized groups to solve their issues. I found joy in helping people so I decided to this full time.

I love photography. I try to take pictures and learn a new story with each people that I interact with.
I love to meet with new people, talking to them, see the smile on people's faces. I love outdoor sports. Now is a good time for skiing and snowboarding.

PHILOSOPHY

"20 years from now, you will be more disappointed, by the things you didn't do, than by the ones you did. so explore, dream, discover."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was just starting to explore the world right when I started doing Couchsurfing in 2009. Since then I traveled a lot. I hosted a lot of people. I was away for a long time when I started my trading company. However, now I have more time to interact with people.

People I Hosted

Those people are just my first Couchsurfers :) I quit writing them in here when my CouchSurfers counted to 120. I had all the great experiences of all my CouchSurfers.

I will leave this as a tribute to my first year.
