I am a part of all that I have met,
And all experience is an arch wherethro'
Gleams that untravell'd world, whose margins fade,
Forever and for ever when I move.
-- "Ulysses" (Alfred Lord Tennyson)

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I've done some surfing in China and the U.S. over the years. I've hosted in New Haven, CT; and Sacramento, CA.

兴趣

I love puzzles, games, biking, red wine, and a good cocktail. I am trying to learn how to cook and play the violin; someday soon I'd also like to learn some programming and re-learn Spanish.
