ABOUT ME

Hi there, world traveler. Thanks for checking my profile!

I have a private tutoring center in Brooklyn.

I used to have cats, but I also like to walk dogs to encourage adoption. Want to join for dog walks? Message me!

I love being social in NY but these days because of work our interaction might be limited. Hopefully we have time to go to some not-for-tourist places, or at least have a meal together.

On the day of your arrival, please give me advance notice to see whether I am able to receive you. If not, Luana’s Tavern, the bar and restaurant is just below my home, and a suitable waiting place, or we can arrange a key pickup.

**Please don't request to be hosted farther than one month away, unfortunately my schedule is too unpredictable.**

What's your favorite meal to cook? Cooking together is about more than eating. It’s cooperation and laughter, generosity and thoughtfulness. If you can't find time to cook or eat somewhere together, I'm not the host for you.

If you do prefer to cook instead of going out to eat, let’s do it. And ask me why my lasagna is famous in Taiwan :))

PHILOSOPHY

Treat others as you would like to be treated.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
