Originally from Bangkok, Thailand but currently living in the States where my family has settled since 2011. It is not easy describing myself but I would say that the common opinion my friends have of me is that I am agreeable and generous.

My thought: You could know someone in your city for a year and have never been to their home. Here on couchsurfing, you get to put a person’s living space with their personality on the first day that you meet. What a privilege to be here with open-minded hosts and travelers!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Traveling to different places and seeing the sights around the world is amazing, but sitting down to talk with locals offers so much more. I love hearing and sharing stories, and from my experience, I connect with a city more deeply when I couchsurf rather than staying in hotels. It all comes down to the people you meet and how closely you can immerse yourself in the local culture.
Don’t just go to Paris, take a picture with Eiffel Tower and say you’ve been to Paris, you know what I’m saying?

I understand that in some cities, accommodation can be expensive. But in my opinion, saving money should not be the primary reason you are using this app. Because if you don’t have enough money to travel, you shouldn’t be traveling in the first place. Anything that can go wrong will go wrong and having money is a leverage to get yourself out of any kind of situation

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to many types of music, and many different languages as well. But if I have to pick my favorite artists it's John Mayer. I own a record player and I my favorite records that I own are things you cannot find on music streaming platforms and sometimes, not even on youtube.
You can DJ me literally anything though.

Favorite movie: Apocalypse Now
Although I don’t watch movies much
Favorite actor: Maybe Jackie Chan

I just started reading books in 2023 and have not developed a taste for any specific genre. I have mostly been reading self improvement books. Anything by Robert Greene is great.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am not an impressive person. I know nothing and I am curious of many things. It’s subjective what is the one amazing thing I have done. But I am proud of myself for backpacking alone in Europe for 3 months in 2016 and spent another 3 months driving around United States in 2017. I would love to do those things again one day. Currently, I am at peace, running a business and going on short trips from time to time.

Teach, Learn, Share

I get my hands on anything that I am interested in so I do a lot of things but I am not particularly very good at anything. Examples: soccer, skateboarding, music, art, etc. But I am willing to share any skills with you if you are interested!

What I Can Share with Hosts

- I like conversations. Even though I don't have a lot wisdom to give, I can think of stories to share or just be a good listener.

- I will go play whatever sports you play with you. Or participate in an event you’re interested in attending if you’d like a company.

- If the host takes me out to their favorite local restaurant, I would like to offer to pay for at least one meal during my stay with them.
