Overview
About Me
An island girl by heart, a wanderlust, wine enthusiast and passionate photographer.
For the past year, I've lived in Coron, Palawan and Boracay Island but I'm currently here in Manila for my travel and tour business. Since I love to travel so much, I decided to put up my own travel and tour company as it is my passion. I won't be able to host right now as I will be traveling. I will be able to help you plan your travel if you're coming here in the Philippines.
I am here in Manila right now and I'm planning my trip to Tokyo, Japan this coming October for a week (I know it is still a long time but hey, I'm so excited already as it's my first time!!) Any suggestions and locals to meet would be great.
I have hosted in the past through Hospitalityclub. I just noticed that Couchsurfers are very much hyped and cool by reading their profiles. Yes, I'm the type of person who likes to read a person's profile before messaging or contacting you because I want to find out our similar interests and learn a bit information about you.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
