I'm a Digital Nomad, currently working as a Digital Marketing Strategist. Born and raised in the United States, my lineage traces back to Cambodia. I tend to travel to places where my limits and fortitude are tested. Also, If the place has good food, then I'm there. Most of my money goes to food and if necessary, shelter.

I'm pretty laid back, contemplative, and observant. At home, I spend most of my time planning my next trip or reading a book on Zen Buddhism or meditation.

Traveling gives me the opportunity to be an explorer, an adventurer. It gives me the chance to meet amazing people...people with their hopes, dreams, and even despair. All of it, enlivens me and gives me insight to my own self.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm open to new experiences, new adventures, and new stories. I always say...travel is: 10% the destination, 90% the people. The people you meet makes the journey worthwhile. Looking forward to meeting you all!
