Hello! I’m Nicole.

I’m also a geek in stilettos, — love tech, startups and anything girlie. Right now, I am doing freelancing on UI/UX design while also travelling around the world.

I love animals and can dog/cat sit for anyone.

Vegetarian. Nom Nom Nom :)
I don't smoke nor drink.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have been couchsurfing since 6 years ago, and the hospitality I have gotten is amazing!! I do it mostly when I travel alone, just to chat with the locals, or people who live in the area to understand more about the place I am visiting.

“Sometimes people are beautiful.
Not in looks.
Not in what they say.
Just in what they are.”
- Markus Zusak, I Am the Messenger

A journey is best measured in friends, rather than miles. - Tim Cahill

Interests

I am one of the few who can say, I love my job! User experience and interface design grew out as a hobby and became my bread and butter.

My favourite sports are aerial hoop, cycling and yoga. Currently learning how to do handstands.
