Overview
About Me
Hai Guys, I was born and grew up in Jakarta.
Current Mission
I know that live far away from your family and friends is not always easy and sometimes uncomforting. That maybe you need a friend to make your journey memorable. And here I’m. I believe that sharing is caring and whenever you do good, the good will come back to you. So why don’t give a hand to each other? Please read my profile before stay with me.
Philosophy
Move. As far as you can, as much as you can. Across the ocean, or simply across the river. Walk in someone’s else’s shoes or at least eat their food. Open your mind, get up off the couch, move.
-Anthony Bourdain-
At least those words represent what I’m holding until now. Since curiosity won’t kill you then I should give a try. Sleep to have dreams and wake up to make those mine.
I like to communicate with other people, even for the simple thing that you may find in google. It’s not always about any information that you can found in google or the words that you can find in your fingers. For me, it is what comes from your mind. A genuine thought from human being (without being edited) is not always can be found in cyberspace. For me, cyberspace never gives a clear view. Only by communicating we know each other better, build the real world with real connection leaving every presumption behind.
The difference is a rainbow. It’s the color that fills your days. Don’t try to change it just appreciate it as the color that fills your day. For me, harmonization will change the world to be black or white. Do you still have any wander to live in that kind of world?
I’m traveling not only to see the world but to know the world by connecting with the citizen by living, walk and socialize like the local. It will enrich me with thoughts that will help me to solve my problems and tolerate with other things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I want to be a good citizen in the global world.
I kind a new in CS. Actually, some years ago, I escorted my friend’s guest and he suggested me to open account in CS. I opened it but I’m not very sure whether I can contribute in the community because my home is not in a strategic place. I felt that it will give the traveler more handicap. So I left CS with the standard profile. But sometimes I did escort some guesses from CS or outside CS.
Interests
I have lots of interests. I like to hear people's stories, to hear their opinion from their perspective. It's interesting for me. And no worries, I'm a good story teller as well. Just be patient with my language. :)

Music, Movies, and Books
I don't have any preferences. I read most of the book that I bought. I buy the book which attracts me. :)
I made a music playlist but never heard it for the second time. I mostly listen to the music charted by Itunes or radio.
Horror and thriller movies are not my preference. But I watched them anyway :)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Teaching kids in the slum area in Jakarta is one of the most amazing thing in my life. I saw them on the first day when they come to the class and being the witness of how they're growing. From a very shy kid until they can socialize with the other. How they finally tolerate with their friends and sang the simple song. I enjoyed and cherished it.
