CURRENT MISSION

To see the world before I get shackled down with 8 children and an underpaying job

ABOUT ME

Hello There!

I'm currently living in Menlo Park with 7 of my good friends. We share a love for rock climbing, ultimate frisbee, nerdy endeavors (think lots of coding and bike building), and Keanu Reeves. Most of us have lived together for several years. One of our old houses was hand-built by an orthopedic with no construction experience (this is apparent by some functionalities in our house) and doubled as a bomb shelter. Now we are in Menlo Park in a new place but with the same high level of family.

As for me, I grew up in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. My family is originally from Taiwan and I spent significant time there as a child. People often describe me as dynamic, zaney, goofy, legit, direct, chill, and quirky. I noticed some of the words are synonyms so let me throw spontaneous and whimsical into the mix.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life in technicolor. And love.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have a pretty hectic schedule but msg me and I can answer questions about the area or meet up for coffee sometimes.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My best friend is an avid couch surfer and my perception of the project has only been brightened by him and his guests. I would love to get involved after witnessing the experiences he has had.
