About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Make use of my youth before overcome by death (whenever that is)

ABOUT ME

I'm a certified English teacher who has been living and working in Asia since early 2011 and been travelling internationally since summer 2001. I enjoy learning languages and trying new things (except with food) and I'm always willing to give helpful advice where needed.

To find out about life in Asia, please visit my website.
And to find out about life in Weihai, please watch this video: http://youtu.be/Ms0WthDLc3w

Cheers!

PHILOSOPHY

Do unto others as you wish they do unto you.
Live life to the fullest.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Whether willing to meet with surfers or letting them stay at my place I try to make sure everyone has a good time in my city.

At the moment I am teaching English camp in a very secluded area of Andong and I'm gone literally all day. Mon-Thurs. I will be available to host again beginning in September.
