CURRENT MISSION

to lather myself in experience. to find several homes across the globe and to never stop learning.

ABOUT ME

I am a Portland transplant from Los Angeles. I was raised in America but I have Filipino heritage that is very important to me.

For work, I am a freelance film production coordinator.
I am a photographer and filmmaker who is passionate for the 35mm format.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is better unplanned. My life's most memorable moments were left to spontaneity. i generally try to avoid routine and prefer to keep the momentum rolling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I look forward to creating memories through couch surfing. When the situation is right, I plan to host surfers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couchsurfed in Paris, the Côte d'azur, Reykjavik, Vienna, Porto, Lisbon, Budapest, and Guadalajara. I have yet to host but will certainly do so when I'm in a proper situation!

Interests

I am a lover of cinema, all types and genres. Music is an important hobby (both creating and listening). I love to explore, photograph, sew, experiment, and cook. My possessions tend to be second hand not only for economical reasons, but for the history and nostalgia they carry. I appreciate all forms of art and have a burning desire and need for it in my life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
