Hi,
I am BaRT from Indonesia, a laboratory technician, who enjoy traveling, writing, photography, and outdoor activities. I manage a travel blog (bartzap.com) and sometimes write travel-related-article for media. And in the last 2 years I organize cultural and trekking trip to Nepal as well.

I will not say that I am a travel addict, but yes I travel often in these recent years. At least I do travel every 3 months to broaden my sight and experience.

I interest in outdoor activities, and also history, culture, architecture, and local culinary. Therefore I enjoy hiking, trekking, diving, snorkeling as well as I enjoy city and museum wandering.

I am an open minded person who love to see other perspective, though sometimes it contradicts to my own opinion. An introvert at first, but will be slightly extrovert after the ice breaking. Genuine experiences will be a story that make me listen for hours.

While a night life isn't fit on me, a nice conversation and exciting local/unique festival will be something that I enjoy very much.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I love to meet people. To know their life/travel stories, and share my stories too. For me, it's always interesting to understand a place from locals. And will be more interesting if I could experience their daily life/activities as well.

Whoever you are, whatever your story is. I want to learn something from you.
