About Me

ABOUT ME

28y old who just finished my 1 year mandatory military service in the Taiwanese Navy. Looking for adventures before I head back to the UK for work.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the idea - meet locals while traveling and paying it forward

Interests

I’d like to think I’m an active person - I like outdoor activities (especially water-related) and staying fit through weightlifting and eating right.

  • photography
  • powerlifting
  • scuba diving
  • biology
  • science

Music, Movies, and Books

I watch way too much TV. Here are some shows I enjoy: Game of Thrones, How I Met Your Mother, Entourage, Breaking Bad, The Wire, Vikings, Person of Interest, Arrow, and Homeland.

Movies: Lord of the Rings, The Dark Knight,

Books: Shantaram, The Hunger Games, and Marching Powder

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of my most amazing experience was when I hitchhiked from Guangzhou in China to Tibet, Nepal, and India where I flew to Sri Lanka. I found a job on the east coast of Sri Lanka in Arugam Bay where I lived for 4 months. In those 4 months, I lived on a hammock by the sea and I helped rebuild a tsunami-damaged internet cafe, waited for a restaurant, and learnt to surf.

Teach, Learn, Share

I’m a research scientist so can help you understand some basic biological concepts.
