I love to travel, meet interesting people, go where the locals eat, and try ALL THE FOOD. The world is my playground. I love kickboxing, cross country running, mountain biking, hiking, kayaking, white river rafting, swimming... If you invite me to any recreational or outdoorsy activities, I will be down.

New to couch surfing so I don't have many CS friends yet, but I would love to be a member of this tight nit community and hope to make many new friends. It's my vision to create deep connections through couchsurfing and learn from one another through our experiences. I would love to get to know you and hopefully share some adventures with you along the way!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Solo travel to Australia and England.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to learn how to make your favorite meal and pay your generosity with a recipe of my own. I would love to hear your story, listen to your adventures, and just learn from you. If you know how to cook, knit, craft, scuba dive, fish, skateboard, surf, fix cars, play guitar, make desserts/ cocktails, build furniture, ride motorcycles, grow plants, etc. etc. I want in. :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories, good conversation, and my love of food. I can teach you how to make a mean case of Chicken Adobo? Lol it's the only Filipino food I know how to make. If you're interested in fitness and nutrition, I would be more than happy to provide free counseling. :)

If you have time, we can enjoy coffee (or tea) and share breakfast in the morning, explore the city and visit your favorite restaurant in the afternoon, and watch a good movie to wrap the evening with. If you have work, we can still enjoy the morning and/ or evening together while I explore the city in the afternoon. If you need help with walking your dog, housekeeping, or cooking, I can put my skills to use. Just let me know!
