I am a humanitarian worker based in the Philippines. I have been living overseas for 2 years and I enjoy traveling around the region. I usually travel alone, so if you have any recommendations on local sights to visit, or local dishes to try, i'll be very grateful. If you want to go have a beer, even better. I am pretty quite and responsible so I won't cause you any trouble. I enjoy hiking, good food and drink, temples/shrines, and meeting interesting people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couch surfing because a friend of mine has had great experiences hosting and surfing using this site and I want to get in on the fun. I've met a lot of great people from around the world.

Interests

I am really interested in local histories, food, and drink. Everywhere I go I like to try local cuisine and meet people. I love visiting temples/shrines and I read history books for fun.

I also am a bit of geek and enjoy board games and complaining how Hollywood has ruined most of my favorite books by turning them into movies.
