CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'll find fun in whatever I'm doing. The right company makes anything entertaining! I play the piano, not professionally, but good enough to impress maybe one person in the room. Also trying to learn the guitar. I like to pose in pictures while eating. I considered putting programming languages under the "Language" section of my profile, but decided it would be overly nerdy. Current favorite TV show is 30 Rock, also enjoy the Colbert Report, The Daily Show, and Family Guy. I enjoy relaxing music (non-classical piano, or anything with a good melody), not too into rap and hip hop, but it's nice to go a club every once in a while. Snowboarding is awesome. I love exploring and experiencing new things.

PHILOSOPHY

Curiosity * (Exploration + Nice People) = Awesome-ness

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well...right now it seems I just mooch off other peoples' hospitality since I don't have a place for people to stay. I can show anyone around Seattle if they like!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I stayed with an awesome host in Nara last year and I also got some nice local tours in Taiwan and Hong Kong! Very nice people!

Interests

I like pretty much everything. New experiences and exploration are the best things in the world! (Not just places and things, but ideas and culture as well!)

Music, Movies, and Books

Diego Torres, Jim Brickman, George Winston, Canon in D (Best song ever), I enjoyed "The day the earth stood still" and gattaca, I enjoy horror movies, any comedies, and kung fu films. I haven't really had time to read books for pleasure recently...I get too impatient. (Which is why I like movies)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Designed a blood substitute made from engineered bacteria! That doesn't really sound amazing, but that's all I got!
