About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Live and Die
ABOUT ME
I'm curious about everything. Everything. And I like wandering, which will probably be the death of me when I'm older and more feeble.
I'm shy at first but open up easily :] A wallflower, really.
I was born in Hong Kong, raised in the US, and have been living in Seattle since. I like trying my hand a lots of different things-- painting, guitar, carpentry, teaching, engineering, etc.
PHILOSOPHY
I live for my friends because I have little family. Past that, I live to experience, connect, and create.
I have my own opinions and ideals, but I rarely get upset by opposing views. Differences can be beautiful. In general, live and let live, and bring changes about slowly but purposefully.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have a couch, I share what I have, I learn what people bring, and I wander from place to place to do the same elsewhere :]
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've couch surfed along the west coast of the US through Craigslist and around the northeast US through people I met over the internet. Hostels or work-trade elsewhere.
