CURRENT MISSION

Spreading the joy of a smile throughout the world

ABOUT ME

I want to see, do, explore and experience this world. Not when I'm 70 and can't hike up the steps to the top of the Vatican or Blarney Castle, but right now!

I've lived in China for the past two years and trying to see as much of Asia as I can while I'm here.

I believe in learning from the knowledge of others and passing on personal ideas about travel, love, happiness, and general fun-facts of life.

'It's better to walk 10,000 miles than to read 10,000 pages.'

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

On a trip to Hong Kong I was basically stranded with my luggage until one saintly couch surfer came to my rescue. Since then I've been hooked.

I hope to someday return the same kindness my CS'r bestowed upon me, but until the time comes when someone actually wants to visit Wenzhou, China, I'm very happy just to travel, visit or chat with a new face.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Absolutely amazing. I love meeting 'traveling souls.'
