About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Weed out the unnecessary and unenjoyable, so there's more space for the truly worthwhile and enjoyable!

ABOUT ME

I'm a very open-minded, easy-going person. Love new places, new people, new food. Just trying to see the world one place at a time...and really enjoy swapping stories with people who are doing the same.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am just discovering Couch Surfing, but I'm really excited about becoming a part of it!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am a complete CouchSurfing Newbie! But I've met a few really cool folks on travels who swear by it (and I'm coming to Seoul next week as a solo traveler) so I thought I'd give it a try. I hope some nice soul can give me a good first experience... Do I sound unconvinced? I might be...just a little...but I'm looking forward to being a total CouchSurfing Convert. I sense it might become addictive...

Interests

MSG-laden food, bad Chinese soap operas, not so bad Chinese rock bands, a good cold beer on a hot summer day (Maybe 2. Or 3.), jogging at night where no one can see me huffing and puffing after 4 minutes, hiking up mountains that are worth the huffing and puffing, swapping "worst toilet" stories with travelers in Asia, taking way too many pictures on my cheap digital camera, listening to Weezer,
