About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Master Studies @ TU/e

ABOUT ME

Whenever I have time or chance to get away from studying, I find myself checking the world map and making traveling plans. Although it costs me more time, effort and money to travel (with paperwork etc. since I am a "non-EU") I neither gave up not am willing to give up traveling all around the world.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is too short to spend it in only one country.

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.”

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I was going on my Interrail Euro Trip with one of my best friends, we couldn't find a nice&cheap place to stay in Amsterdam around mid-August. Until we heard about and signed up for CS! And since we are all(well, mostly) students, I think that's the best possible way to help each other to make through the cruel life during our travels!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Getting experienced all around the world with MOSTLY the best and A FEW bad ones :)

Interests

I enjoy attending & throwing theme parties a lot. They are mostly closed events and it is much more fun if you're doing it abroad. But wherever you go, your parties will always be impressive as you have cool people around you. Cos for me, it's not where you are, but who you are with.
