About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Taking the road less traveled and (hopefully) turning it into gold...or a book!

ABOUT ME

I’m a Filipina writer living in Singapore, and currently taking time off to travel and write full-time. I have written four books and am constanly on the lookout for new places to explore and seek inspiration from.

PHILOSOPHY

"There was another life that I might have had, but I am having this one." — Kazuo Ishiguro
Live the moment!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Had a wonderful experience with a CS friend in Cambodia, and I hope to pass on the kindness. I'm definitely game in meeting new friends.

Interests

My two passions are writing and traveling. I've traveled solo around Europe, Asia, and Australia. But I don't mind company, too! I'm also into poetry, reading, running, photography, painting, design...and soap-making. :)
