CURRENT MISSION

To make the world a smaller place

ABOUT ME

I make things!

I'm always working on something interesting. Just ask.

Sometimes I know what day it is.

PHILOSOPHY

Shape your tools, or be shaped by them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A friend of mine told me about this, and vouched for the community here. That is the extent of my experience!

I have hosted random people before, just not using this service.

Interests

All branches of science and engineering. Statistics. Punched cards. Solar power.

Basically the things I do for fun, most people consider "work". You'll probably either think that's awesome, or really boring.

Also cooking! I'm pretty OK at it and it's my least toxic hobby, I promise!

Minecraft is pretty cool too.

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't listen to music, and have no favorite books or movies. I don't really have time for culture that is consumed passively, the universe is too exciting for that!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One time I harnessed the power of the atom, and ended up speaking at an engineering conference.

This is why I no longer drink before making New Year's resolutions.

Teach, Learn, Share

I used to live in Vietnam, where I found a good group of engineering types and worked on some fun stuff.

Now I'm suddenly in Tokyo and don't know anyone, looking to fix that.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm really, really good at navigating. The experience of being lost is utterly alien to me.

Also I always travel with the tools to fix all the other things I travel with. I'm a walking factory/repair shop. If you've got something particularly interesting I'll take a look.

If you run a business or startup, I can be a good person to bounce ideas off of sometimes.
