Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The passion to explore the beauty on the other side of the world is my greatest motivation. I always look forward to meeting people and exploring new places. Part of the package is experiencing new culture, listening to stories of other people and learning a lot of things. Yes a lot. A travel brings countless memories, good or bad, that make us mature and make us realize how beautiful life is.

Another driving factor why I'm here is to guide those who plan to visit my beautiful country, Philippines.

Interests

I love traveling.
Food. Yes, food! Someone said that people who love to eat are the best people. Agree! Although I don't consume a lot of food in one setting, I love trying new flavors and exploring new restos.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1) Water rafting. Thank God, survived 15 wild rapids :)

2) Free fall. Forgot exactly how many feet but I can associate it to jumping from the rooftop of a 20-storey building. Thank God, I'm still alive.

3) Swimming with whale sharks. They are beautiful creatures. I love them.

4) Feeding the tigers. That was scary but worth it.

5) Scuba Diving.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach - I do financial modelling. I could teach you forecasting, budgeting and some excel tricks! Very technical! Kidding aside, I can teach you the basics of my language.

Learn - I want to learn Japanese and French. Be my mentor? Also, I would love to talk to a native English speaker particularly those with British accent.

Share - I want to share to others the beauty of being alive through inspiring life stories of people from all walks of life. "Live well. Laugh often. Love much."
