ABOUT ME

people say i'm easy going, open minded, techy and i love traveling and foreign culture/mindsets.. i'm into games, movies, music, reading, mostly PC games but console as well. i've been in asia by means of a japanese high school exchange gone wildly out of control for 6+ years and returned to the "west" recently.
i'm pretty knowledge thirsty and love sharing and learning new things and meeting open minded people.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i've hosted CSers in taiwan, japan, canada and north CA - during the 2010 winter olympics we've had people from all over come for the games in canada, and we learned a lot about each other and the world. great experience, kind of a western CS baptism.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

one of the big sights i visited in japan stands out. i spent four hours getting to amanohashidate, with four hours to get back, and arrived 40 minutes before the observation area 'closed'.. but it was totally worth it.

教，学，和分享

i have built, upgraded or configured many computers over the years. i know a lot about asian culture, cinema, electronic music and literature, technology, the internet, to name some things. i was an eagle scout, whatever that means. i speak a good amount of japanese and plan a return to tokyo.
