CURRENT MISSION

Living life to the fullest and to live by my own rule (which might be viewed negatively by several people but I assure you that once you know me you'll change your view regarding this haha)

ABOUT ME

I am currently working as a football youth coach. Coaching children on playing football in my hometown Padang. I like to explore and experience new stuff. I want to learn a lot of interesting stuff and make friends.

I also got a lot of feedback regarding my mask. Please don't be afraid of me because of the mask. I don't wear them in my everyday life. In fact I don't think I am wearing them anymore these days. I can assure you that I am a good guy. In any case, I am quite open to anyone.

I also understand that couchsurfing is not a dating website so friendship is the only relationship I am looking for. So I can assure you that you are in good company if you hosts me or if I host you.

PHILOSOPHY

Never judge the book from its cover
Be compassionate
Be open minded,free your mind towards the unthinkable
Keep learning
Be natural
Polarity is the key
There are other sky above the sky
Nothing is permanent
Only force things in the toilet
Follow your own rule
Smile is the best make up
The secret to happy life is to be children no matter your age
Get lost in life and find your own way of life
Having a luxury does not mean everything in life will go smoothly
All of you are nothing special, you are just earthlings

Interests

I am a man who loves football. And as you can see I am currently working in a football related field, working as a football coach. As a football lovers, I can talk a lot about football as it is my passion in life. However, I also have a lot of interests other than football. Languages are also one of my passion. One of my mission as a human being is to be able to speak a lot of languages. I find learning languages to be really fun and by being able to speak other languages, I can connect with people better and feel that my brain is working in the way I wish. I also love to get new perspective in life since it also helps me to be motivated and become a better person in life. The way I could experience it is by meeting and making friends with new people and knowing more about theirpoint of view or life principles or philosophies. I also found that travelling helps me in becoming a better person since it helps me in gaining new perspective and make me realized how big and interesting the world is. When I realized this, it makes me love the world even more since it never cease to surprise me. Due to this fact, I am also a man who loves the nature and is interested in helping this world from its problem specifically the pollution. I worked in a recycling center before and is interested if anyone can give me ideas as to how I can improve this. From all of this, you should be able to see that I am a man who are interested in human development. I realized through my whole life up to this point that education is really important and the source to be able to help people realize to live a better life. So, I am also currently interested in education. One of my current goal in life is to make a good education institution in my country. If anyone who is involved in the education industry or can give me advice regarding this, I am all ears. I am also interested in cooking. To summarize, I have a lot of interests.

Music, Movies, and Books

Too much to be listed for movies. I like movies which has an interesting plot and philosophical. I can't say that I like reading books, but I can be absorbed to a book if the book can really piqued my interests. I prefer reading books that can challenge my thinking and helps me improve as a better person. I also like reading books that can kill my boredom. I don't really listen to music

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I made a book without really planning it. The book is sold in the country's biggest retail bookshop. All just started by my previous temporary hobby to meet footballers

Teach, Learn, Share

Since I graduated University in Psychology and Philosophy, I like to discuss on insights as to how people can improve their lives. Exchanging ideas are what I like from discussion since it can give me motivations and new truths. I also loves to cook. I am not the best cook but a lot of people gives credit to my fried rice. Its also nice to learn new recipes from people since its fun and unpredictable. Which is what I like from cooking. I also love languages.I can teach some language I know or vice versa. Since I am a football coach, I can teach a little bit of football skills or do some football discussions. I have also done some martial arts which can also be my and people's interests. Since I work in recycling center before, I can also give my insight regarding recycling.
