Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To see the world, and leave it a little bit better than I found it
ABOUT ME
Always positive! Put me on a beach with a drink in my hand and I'm a happy camper. I believe in karma and love to meditate, read, work out, surf and travel.
PHILOSOPHY
Follow the Golden Rule. Tell the truth. Nothing is personal. Every one of us is just doing the best we can. We all deserve to be happy.
"Character is higher than intellect. A great soul will be strong to live as well as think." ~Emerson
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
My couch is open to anyone who wants it while I am living and working in Shanghai. I love to travel and would like to meet good people instead of staying in a hotel.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I stayed with an awesome guy named Dean in Langkawi, Malaysia before I ever knew what couchsurfing was! That's what made me join this site. Dean was a great guy and we had some great times together. Road trip into Thailand with Anja, Sandy and Ursula! Will never forget the hospitality and kindness!
Met some nice people in Thailand who were couchsurfing and explored Phuket Island with them.
