About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Grow and try to enjoy it as much as possible. Make the world a better place one song at a time (www.enjoyordie.life)

ABOUT ME

Part-time Finance & Data Analyst, part-time Music Producer, DJ, and Creative Label Owner.

I am an open-minded, easy going guy who do not ask much: new experiences and good times with great people. Although an introvert, I am sociable and get along with pretty much anybody. I wish I was more outgoing, but once the ice is broken, this is not an issue anymore. I like to go out for drinks or check out underground music scenes. Nature keeps blowing my mind and I enjoy it every time.

Due to my extreme curiosity about life, I enjoy discussing about pretty much anything and have a broad experience in diverse spheres.

PHILOSOPHY

It all begins with showing respect to others and keeping promises.

I believe that everyone and everything is connected on some level, and that our bodies are just vessels. To me, it makes sense both in a spiritual and physical sense. I mean, at one point, we were all one dot of energy and particules, and we’re all made from the same stuff the stars are made.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

1. I love going to new places.
2. I love to meet new people.
3. When traveling, I want to live like a local, not a tourist.

Interests

Music, I love it (listening and playing). Sports (ultimate, snowboard). Simply stopping and smelling the flowers. Business & Finance. Meeting people that will show me life in a way I've never seen it before.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ran with the bulls in Pamplona.

Drank with Chinese farmers in 东北 (nord-est). They make the best 二鍋頭 (type of liquor) I’ve ever had.

The view from the highest mountain in Banff, Alberta with Beethoven's Ode to Joy in my earphones.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'll show you how to play a C and a G chord on the guitar so you can improvise an happy song whenever you grab a guitar.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'll teach you the French from Canada (not like France). I enjoy cooking nice meals (worked in a few restaurants in my early life). I'll show you a new musical artist that you'll love.

I also cook the best omelette in the world. It’s a secret technique that I invented 🤫
