CURRENT MISSION

Digital nomad exploring the world, looking for hidden gems, unforgettable experiences, and amazing new friends.

ABOUT ME

It's so hard to describe me but I will try. Outside of my perfection, I embody flawlessness. The epitome of excellence. If you would like to bask in the aurora of impeccability, you need to meet me. Your life is incomplete until you are graced by my presence. Above all, I value humility.

I am a bit spontaneous. BLAM! See, you didn't even see that coming. You're welcome.

PHILOSOPHY

It's not what you know, but who you know. So let me know you!

It is better to ask for forgiveness than to ask for permission.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I didn't surf/host or go to events much in China (Apr 2018 - Aug 2021) since couchsurfing is not that popular there.

Before, I had hosted quite a bit and surfed with some pretty cool people. I hope to add you to the list!

I used to go to the language tables for French/Spanish/Chinese speakers and I like to attend events in the parks around town on beautiful days (so in Belgium, I did this twice a year and in Spain I did it more often, but Pamplona is still quite rainy, in China I only went a few times). Now, I'm digital nomading around the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Loving it so far. Great hosts and courteous guests. I've hosted a lot, like maybe 50 people.

I like most music: rock, dubstep, reggaeton, hip hop, r&b, jazz, rock, pop, classical, etc.

I like TV Shows like Seinfeld, Psych, The Big Bang Theory, H, Un Gars Une Fille, Allí Abajo, Gym Tony, 30 Rock, and Happy Endings.

I do like books like The Richest Man in Babylon and The Screwtape Letters.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Amazingness is relative. I do amazing things everyday and other people see me doing them, but dont realize how amazing it is. Just as I see people doing things that are amazing, without realizing it myself.

Having said that, I woke up this morning. And I've seen the Northern Lights in Alaska.

教，学，和分享

Teach me what you know, and you may learn something about yourself in the process and we can share the experience together.

I'm also a Fitness Trainer, so I can help you reach your fitness goals @TrainwithTMax

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I am an excellent cook, and my specialty is an omelet with all the fixin's. I also like to make gumbo and jambalaya (rice based dishes from Louisiana). I've been vlogging on YouTube for the last 4 years and I love talking about cinematography, videography, and photography. I'm pretty good at video editing as well, so I can teach you some secrets on how to make great videos using just a mobile phone.
