Hello
I am a newly minted entrepreneur and would like to travel to new places since I have more flexible working hours now.
New to couch surfing but have been a big fan of AirBnB since conception and have been to many cities meeting and hanging out with AirBnB hosts. Now giving couch surfing a try.

I love technology and I am a beginner surfer. I love food and trying simple and freshly prepared cuisines.

ideals, action, empowerment - looking forward to meeting the couch surfing community around the globe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

to meet more local people in new cities
I have lived in 3 different countries - Taiwan, New Zealand, and United States. I have a good sense of humor and is a nice person to have a drink with.
try home cooking and see the local markets - hanging out in farmers market is my favorite past time

talk about All Blacks (New Zealand national Rugby Team)

I am moving to Melbourne, Australia after a tour in South America.
Would love to host in the future!
