I love food and travelling!

I am a food technologist, originally from the Philippines, and is currently taking up my Joint Masters Degree in Food Innovation and Product Design in France. I would like to specialize in Healthy Food Design to help address malnutrition and hunger in the near future.

Most of my friends would tell you I am organized but easy-going, with a sense of humour, and unique. I find joy in all the little things in life (it's always the little things that make up the big things!).

I value experience over material things. I believe that travelling and getting out there is one way to grow and have a greater understanding of how the world works. As they say, "Experience is the best teacher!"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's one way of meeting locals and staying with them. It a good way to get to know the place and the people. It's like the "old school" trade - like the law of equal exchange: letting me stay and in return, I can help you with the house in exchange. ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

I am very flexible in terms of music, I can listen to a wide range of music - rock, classical, jazz, electronic, reggae, R&B, etc.

I love watching movies about suspense, life, realistic romance, robots, and action. I am especially a fan of Will Smith and Transformers.

I mostly read books on self-help, romance, fiction, and mystery. One of my favorites is The Monstrumologists Trilogy!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am very good at getting lost - it's a talent, believe me!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love food, arts, music, sports, and cooking (but cooking does not seem to like me, tough love).

I love travelling so I really save up for them.

I also love hearing people stories! You learn a lot from them and they, more often than not, open your mind to new perspectives you've never thought of!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can help you with cooking (especially cutting and slices), washing the dishes, and promise keep the area neat and clean. I would love to hear and share stories - we always learn something with each people that we meet!
