About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Rescue the unicorns!

ABOUT ME

Half Swiss half Filipina and proud of it!
I love my two cultures and whatever I do I combine them.
I have a wide range of interests.
I'm very outgoing and I love to meet new people. I talk and laugh a lot. I'm a really bubbly person. According to that people often think that I'm just a very lighthearted girl, but I often think about life and the world. So at some days I'm more quiet and pensive. That's why I like to talk with other people about philosophy, beliefs and politics. I think it's important to care about something. Communication is very important to me. I think only if we exchange experiences and opinions with other people we can refine ourselves.
I always need people around me, because I don't like being alone, it's so boring. I always need something to do.

PHILOSOPHY

"A heart is not judged by how much you love; but by how much you are loved by others." Wizard of Oz

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hope to get to know people from all over the world and maybe making new friends.
At the moment I don't travel myself, so I invite the world to my home.

Interests

I love to cook Swiss food and I love to cook filipino style. I love cooking anyway.
I'm a comic and movie fan. I love Hardrock and Metal Music. But I also like 80's dance music. I love dancing!
Walt Disney is my big passion. Disneyland is my home!
I like being silly. But I also like to have some serious discussion about politics and life.
I love animals.
I'm a shopaholic. Especially shoes are my weakness.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love films. I have an extensive film collection. I don't have a favourite genre. I like all kinds of films. But I do adore every Tim Burton film. I've seen every one several times and I'm never tired of them. I just love the stories and the style of his films. I also have a fondness for asian fantasy and martial arts films.

I do read a lot. I can't sleep without reading some pages. I like to read fantasy, mystery stories, thrillers and detective stories. I'm really into Steampunk and I like victorian stories. I also like comics a lot. Especially superheros. My favourits are Batman and Wonderwoman. Reading is an escape for me. So I don't like it too realistic. I also like some classics like Peter Pan and Alice in Wonderland. And of course I don't have to mention the Lord of the rings. At the moment I'm a huge fan of the Game of Thrones series.

Music is also a passion of mine. My heart beats for rock music. Especially old school stuff. But I like also progressive metal. I like going to concerts and festivals. It's always a great experience and you get to know many cool people. And sometimes I enjoy classic music.

Teach, Learn, Share

I think everybody has a story to tell. I love to hear those stories and to share my story with others.
