ABOUT ME

I was born in Bali, raised here and sneaked around to see the world for a bit. What I see was so amazing that I've been sneaking around ever since.

I believe: in 'work hard, travel far'; travelers are essentially nice people; my religion is God; and a coffee a day keeps the doctor away.

I love: long dinner with crazy and eccentric people; light, fun, absurd and yet stimulating conversation; belly-cramping-and-tears-coming-out kind of funny jokes; people whose side job is imitating accents and care to teach me to understand the beauty of their language; stories; and insider's perspective which able to transform me from the occasional boredom of life.

PHILOSOPHY

Right now, I'll settle for having a laugh as often as possible, read as many books as possible, learn as much things as situation allowed and try to live the best life. I'm still in touch with some of the CSers that I've met during my travel or their travel to Bali. I immensely treasure these connections and it such a wonderful thought to know that you have a friend in other part of the world.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm ready to meet up, showing people around and have a conversation about anything. I'm also open to any project, research or culture exchange. You can ask me anything if you're interested in insider's perspective about my vast and diverse country with its complexity.

Amsterdam, hosting, few CS Gathering in Bali and I'm sure many more to come!
