** Currently traveling full time and away from San Francisco. Hope to host again when I'm back in 2022 🎆

Stanford engineering student from California trying to hitchhike around the world and meet new friends!

** COVID update: I'm been vaccinated since April and welcoming guests to stay! I understand that finding vaccines can be tough in some countries outside the US. While I strongly recommend getting a vaccine prior to arriving, I can help you schedule an appointment in San Francisco if you're from abroad! Couchsurf safely, friends!

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing

...to meet kind, interesting people in strange new places!

I'm always thrilled to have the chance to cross paths with fellow adventuresome spirits along the road of life. Please hit me up if you're passing through the area. I'd love to learn from your travel wisdom!

Jedna niesamowita rzecz, którą zrobiłem(-am)

I served with the South Korean Marine Corps on a tiny rock a mile away from North Korea for two years. I swear I saw Kim Jong Un (a la Rocket Man) in the flesh through my thermal scope in 2013 :D
