Origin of Manila 🇵🇭
I also used to live and work in Singapore almost 4 years from 2018 up to early 2021. Unfortunately with pandemic, I had to come home but all is well as I had transitioned to a new work life balance called "remote work profession" as Sourcing and Data Consultant where I applied all my acquired knowledge from abroad and social intelligence skills of meeting all walks of life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm an avid traveler because there is more to the world than meets the eye and quick escape from busy metropolis after long hours which is okay plus leisure and work are always a good combo and a self-claim backpacker as of January 2019. Learning the ropes of solo traveling combined with acquainting new people along the way!

My love for traveling came from my mum when she was still 6th months pregnant carrying me on a flight from Riyadh Saudi Arabia to Manila sometime in the 90s, I was a fetus back then of course. I started setting foot on a commercial passage ship at the age of 8 traveling across Luzon, Visayas to Mindanao covering all 3 part islands of the Philippines. First time rode a budget airline Cebu Pacific when I was 10 years old to accompany the burial of my late grandma at her final resting place.

Since then, I've been going around the provinces of mum’s old town in Luzon riding a provincial bus every weekend from Manila to remote areas with limited signal and data.

All of these gave a clear idea to what I want to achieve a life of a backpacker and a career in digital tech space.
