Hi folks! I moved to Southeast Asia 18 months ago to travel and free up time to pursue a bunch of personal projects. I'm a Kiwi, currently living in the beautiful city of Chiang Mai.

IF I SAY 'NO' WITHOUT A MESSAGE:
It's nothing personal, it just means I'm probably too busy to host at that particular time :)

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I spend too much time working in my apartment and am starting to miss being around people! Keen to meet some like-minded folks with similar interests (described below). I'm also passionate about saving money and simple living, so it's nice to help people save a few bucks. Only interested in friends - no sex stuff please.

音乐、电影和书籍

I'm a big bookworm, mostly non-fiction. Trying to make myself less dumb, so my favourite genres are mostly psychology, pop science, philosophy, business etc:
The Black Swan, Sapiens, Abundance, Thinking Fast and Slow, Meditations, Letters From a Stoic, Walden, Selfish Gene, Rational Optimist, Superintelligence.
I don't watch much TV but I do love comedy and cartoons - Adventure Time, Rick and Morty, Bojack Horseman, Archer, Brooklyn 99, Bo Burnham, etc.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I ate a large, deep-dish pizza every single day for 222 days in a row (for #science!)

教，学，和分享

I'm learning gymnastics/calisthenics currently, so it would be great to find a buddy. I'm also interested in learning HTML/CSS coding, content marketing, playing some guitar, and armchair philosophising over a couple of beers.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Hopefully some interesting conversation! Also, I could give beginner guitar lessons, overhaul your personal finances, and potentially help with writing tips or proof-reading.
