About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I really just want to experience as much of life as i can. this includes people, customs, food, music, traditions, beliefs, practices, sleeping arrangements, recreational activities or thoughts about why we have five fingers versus 7.

ABOUT ME

i'm a cool dude. i like all types of music. i'm a general trooper. things i haven't done before are worth a shot. i am afraid of heights. my mom is filipino. i like the beach. reading is important to me. i write poetry. i have a sister who is four years older than me. she lives in chicago. i love the lakers. i have a brother who is 8 years older than me. i just watched the movie "howl" about ginsgberg. my father is chinese, but he was born and raised in the philippines. i currently live in moldova. i am a peace corps volunteer. i like to eat cereal in the morning. i like to sleep in, but hate to go to bed (it might be a generational thing).

PHILOSOPHY

disciplined love. righteousness.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
