About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To be that old guy with all the cool stories and to know he lived life to its fullest.

ABOUT ME

I find it difficult to say who I am. the reason being is that who I am at this very moment can be very different from who I am in another situation. I am a procrastinator, and my fear of being ignorant can at times lead to an uncontrollable urge to learn and experience new things. Quite simply (as if anything is)- I'm a dreamer. I love photography, music, dance, and humans. Human emotion itself is a monster no one can understand, yet it intrigues me immensely. I feed off of creativity and originality. These energies are my motivators.

Some Fun-Facts about Kim:

* He was born in Cambodia in the late 1900s to a family of Chinese descent.

* He grew up in the capital of Phnom Penh, lived a bit in China- and moved to the State of Maine in 2008, and has been living in this VacationLand ever since.

* He goes to a local university for International Business because ... ...the word "international" got him excited?

* He is an INFJ. So according to Myers-Briggs. He is a reflection of Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, MLK, or ...Mel Gibson? http://www.16personalities.com/infj-personality

* He is gay. His personal belief is that life is all about appreciating people for just who they are - and appreciating the differences even more.

"I know that my achievement is quite ordinary. Still, there are times I am bewildered by each mile I have traveled, each meal I have eaten, each person I have known, each room in which I have slept. As
ordinary as it all appears, there are times when it is beyond my imagination." - Jhumpa Lahiri

PHILOSOPHY

Love, Respect, and Learn so far have been my personal philosophy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I was a CS virgin up until my first trip across half of Canada in July. Pure awesomeness!!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far it's been absolutely AMAZING..
Just for the two-week periods on my first CS trip to Canada. I've met and made friends with some of the most amazing people from all over the world. It's totally fantastic to see what CS can do, and to be apart of the awesomeness :D

Interests

I think of myself as artistic. I love many form of arts from paintings, sculptures, to musics and films. But one thing that I REALLY REALLY passionate about is Photography. I love to capture momentous experiences that are worth remembering.
Also love to try to cook... Hike, recreational walk, coffee and chat!!
