About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Visit at least 50% of the world. Long-shot!! :)

ABOUT ME

Media Planner by profession, mountaineer, adventurer-tourist, runner, ultramarathoner, writer, painter but still an average person.

PHILOSOPHY

On Travelling: Travelling is not spending. It's an investment.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can provide basic amenities for one's stay. I can tour them on weekends only, provided my work or prior commitments don't get in the way.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted in my flat and enjoyed the company. I have spent a considerable time entertaining CS friends when they're in Makati or Taguig area.

Interests

Travelling (may it be backpacking, flash packing or just plain touristy). Extreme sports (mountaineering, rappelling, ultramarathons and the like). Music (into anything that's at least eargasmic). Food (pretty adventurous with food from bugs, worms and the like, but I don't like eating blood stew (dinuguan or betamax)).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1. I've strolled in the Great Wall of China;
2. I've climbed Mt. Kinabalu (Sabah, Malaysia);
3. I've climbed Mt. Bukhansan (Seoul, Korea);
4. I've climbed Adam's Peak (Sri Lanka)
5. I've explored 16% (as of December 2017) of the world to count.
6. Skydived in Amelia Island, Florida, USA
7. Watched whale-migration in Díli, East Timor

Teach, Learn, Share

1. Be open to different cultural differences.
2. Be adaptive in a way to ways of life of different people.
3. Always remember it takes two to tango, hence, it's not always that the host should mind the guest's comfort. :)
