I'm from the Unites States. I grew up with a multicultural family and am an open minded person. Have traveled some when I was younger, and want to explore more.

I am an engineer and I live in Los Angeles. I can be a bit of a "nerd", but honestly, nerds are cool. I love traveling and meeting people of other cultures. I come from a multicultural background myself so I find it refreshing to meet new people from all backgrounds. I love museums, art, cinema, science fiction, READING, languages, science/mathematics, being outdoors (hiking, biking, footy, etc), and my curiosity in learning new things is never ending! I believe we never stop growing and learning if we keep our minds open to new things.

So...this is a bit about myself without divulging too much personal information to be unsafe. I'm pretty laid back.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I believe the best way to learn and understand other cultures is to expose yourself to as many aspects of it as possible. Meeting locals and sharing/exchanging cultures is a great way to start.

"Nothing behind me, everything ahead of me, as is ever so on the road."
-Jack Kerouac, The Road

"I knew that if I allowed fear to overtake me, my journey was doomed. Fear, to a great extent, is born of a story we tell ourselves, and so I chose to tell myself a different story from the one women are told. I decided I was safe. I was strong. I was brave. Nothing could vanquish me"
-Cheryl Strayed, Wild

The Count of Monte Cristo - Alexandre Dumas

A Brief History of Time -Stephen Hawking
