CURRENT MISSION

TO GET LOST IN A WHIRLWIND OF EXPERIENCE

ABOUT ME

I work my ass off 8hours a day/5 days a week. I spend a lot of time daydreaming about places I want to go, meeting new people, experiencing life and love. I have no complaints about how I'm living, but I continue to dream of more. I'd rather be just a fisherman and fish, or a farmer and plant seeds. A simple life is what I hope for, nothing more (as always, simple is more). :) I also love skimboarding (and skate and surf for that matter)

PHILOSOPHY

WE GOT DIEM TO CARPE!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was in Malaysia when a friend told me about this site.
Haven't hosted anybody,yet. And I haven't been hosted to, too,yet.

Interests

Skimboarding, and all kinds of boardsports, skate+surf. I also like watching creative TV ads, and reading books, and getting a tan, finding that perfect pair of two-piece, cozy homes, tents, and relaxing music, laughing a lot, good food and conversations.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I travelled to Japan by myself, to join a skimboarding competition. It was the best time of my life. Made me know myself in a way I never knew I was like.

I have also travelled 18 hours to Boracay, 11 hours to Daet, hiked 12 hours to Mt. Isarog with leeches falling on my eyelid and reached the 2000++ ft summit, got hungry, got thirsty, was in the middle of the Pacific water when a rainstorm hit and our boat overturned and I could see nothing but blue underwater, toured Cebu City on a meager budget, spent 14 hours crouched in front of a van to go to El Nido Palawan, I have superb tent-pitching skills, and I think I make my parents proud of me.

Teach, Learn, Share

When coming to the Philippines, bring a notebook. And a lot of funny stories. Make sure you can also take a lot of mocking -- because we like to make fun of everything under the sun. Including you. LOL. But no, we're happy people and we share all we can.

In Malaysia, just be yourself and smile to everybody you see. Don't bring drugs, they give the death sentence there. HAHAHA

In Japan, OH YEAH! Prepare yourself in a world so different, but so rich and beautiful... Bring a notebook too.
