Overview
About Me
I would rather immerse myself in one or two cities and experience local life than seeing all the landmarks of the country.
"A city is only as beautiful as its people."
I've been solo backpacking SE Asia and surrounding counties for about 7 months now. I'm easy going and I'm pretty much down for anything. Love coffee and always ready for a good hike. Nature, mountains and scenery is my thing but I also don't mind bumming on the beach. I enjoy just walking the streets and checking out local parks everytime I'm in a new city, helps me soak it all in and see way of life of locals. Would love to take this opportunity to give couch surfing a go. Definitely want to hangout with some open-minded, fun, chilled out locals and backpackers. So hit me up if you want to hang out!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Awesome opportunity to make some international friends. Would like to hangout with locals and learn about their culture. Great way to meet backpackers as well and listen to their stories and experiences. Even expats. Anything anyone.
