The greatest gift of life is to be alive. And the greatest gift to be human is to feel and laugh.

My experience has taught me to love life to the fullest - its ups and downs, its happiness and sadness. I feel rich not because I own a lot, but because I feel my feelings to the fullest. There is time to cry and there is time to smile. There is time to rest and there is time to dance.

Life on Earth as human can feel miserable at times, I won't lie hehe, and sometimes I wish I'd never been born again to come back here. But Earth also offers wondrous beauties, and I'm here now as human, to experience them all. I feel excited about new things, new food, new places, new people. I love arts, culture, nature, humanity and beauty. I love spirituality, meditation, psychology, and lifelong learning. I love people watching, being alone in the crowd, and having good conversation over good food. Yes, the food is important :p

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've always loved traveling and have heard about Couchsurfing for ages. Finally in 2019 I set up a new account to meet new people when I did my solo trip to the UK and Scotland. And it did not disappoint! My experience with it has been amazing and magical!

Have you had that experience when you couldn't really remember anymore the name of the exact place you went to or what year that was - but you always remember those certain people you met, those who left mark in your heart and brought you memorable experience you could never forget? Just writing about it brings smile on my face :)

In 2010 I also founded a heritage community and made some friends who're passionate about history and culture. We did series of city tours, created some documentaries, played Indonesian traditional music in events and even got our own concert. Even though I am not taking part in this community anymore, it's always a joy for me to share with you insights and travel tips about Jakarta and Indonesia, or other countries I've been to.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- Quitting school
- Living my passion
- Being alive

Teach, Learn, Share

I work in mental health as a counselor, past life regressionist, and also corporate wellness trainer. It's a privilege that people trust me with their life stories and deep dark secrets. I meet a lot of people with different walks of life and it truly is an honour to be able to serve, and at the same time, learn from them. I'd be happy to share with you my work/ life experience if you like - stories from PLR sessions, mindfulness tips, or just together laugh at the silly things I've done in life :)

And from you, I'd be happy to learn anything outside of my comfort zone. I guess that's the gift of meeting new people.
