CURRENT MISSION

To finally embark on my round-the-world couch surfing trip in 2012

ABOUT ME

Born in Taiwan, lived in Singapore, grew up in New Zealand and now living in Sydney, Australia, I guess i have always loved the idea of traveling and moving around and experiencing different lifestyles and cultures.

Coming across couch surfing is like a big revelation to me, and I know its something that I will embrace for a long, long time.

PHILOSOPHY

Guess I am a big believer in not giving up on personal ambitions, or maybe you can just call it naive stubbornness.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

One couch at a time...and hope to spread the word more via my documentary

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

No where near an expert, but I have surfed and hosted a few times now and met fantatic people along the way. My BHAG (Big Hairy Audacious Goal) for 2012 is to do a 100 day trip couch surfing around the world as a TV documentary series and hopefully keep it as the souvenir for myself, as well as the hosts and people that I come across.

Here is a concept trailer that we have put together:

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

For traveling: its always exciting to see/experience big landmark events in different countries (for me, the Running of the Bulls in Pamplona or the Carnivale in Rio were personal highlights), but what I always find amazing and exciting is the experience when you meet locals or other travelers which is what really make the journey. its that interaction with someone which you will always look back on and smile and share with others...I like that feeling.

Teach, Learn, Share

Hope to learn as much about the local cultures of the places that I visit.
