I am a university student who is a first time traveller -- and I am very excited about all the adventures to come!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to explore the world! I am on a student budget, and this is one of the best ways to meet new people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Right now, I am the Lead Festival Coordinator for KULTURA, a multi-day, multi-event Filipino arts and culture festival in downtown Toronto which attracted 15,000 visitors last year. Finally getting to travel this year is the culmination of years of wanting to explore Europe!

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach
I am more than willing to teach you basic Tagalog, my first language!

-----
Learn
I am interested in learning about your local culture -- what is your favourite restaurant? What's the best spot in the city to explore?

-----
Share
I'd love to share my experiences living as a university student in urban, multicultural Toronto as well as my childhood in the Philippines!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can wash the dishes, am great company on trips to grocery stores, and I am excellent at folding laundry. I'm a bit introverted, but I took this trip to break out of my shell and explore more of the world.
