About Me

Hello I like to meet new friends to do fun activities together. I'm interested in guys and girls any age for friendship. I am an open minded Chinese American. I'm from California. I used to work at a normal office job in Los Angeles. After many years of work I decided it was enough. So I quit and spent the last 2 years enjoying the slow life in Chiangmai, Thailand. Then I moved to Kyoto in September 2019. Then I moved to Kuala Lumpur in February 2020.

I have many interests so it's challenging to describe this. My daily routine includes preparing a meal, exercise or playing sports, doing some work online, meeting a friend for coffee/tea, and the occasional night out. If your a tourist I can show you around the city and help adjust to this new environment. If you are a local we can meet for language exchange and perhaps visit nearby places. Let's learn from each other and have fun!

Music, Movies, and Books

I highly recommend the book "Rich Dad Poor Dad" for learning financial independence. This book is super easy to read for beginners. It inspired me to make good decisions and enabled me to live my dream. Perpetual travel.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I travel outside of USA most of the year. However my style of travel is not what most people think it is. I choose to stay in an apartment and live like a local. I try to learn the customs and language. As a result I have learned to be more empathetic.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I offer friendship to everyone! I'm happy to share my experience and knowledge.
