Hi! I’m Iqbal from Makassar, Indonesia. I work in retail and also have experience as a barista and Starbucks Coffee Master ☕. Besides that, I sometimes work as a local tour guide, helping travelers explore Makassar and South Sulawesi — from traditional markets and local food spots to beaches and waterfalls.

I love connecting with people from different cultures, sharing stories, and learning new perspectives about life, travel, and coffee! I’m an easygoing and open-minded person who enjoys good conversations, good food, and good vibes.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I joined Couchsurfing because I believe travel is more meaningful when you connect with locals. I love meeting new people, learning about their culture, and sharing mine in return.
For me, it’s not just about a place to stay — it’s about friendship, kindness, and cultural exchange.

音乐、电影和书籍

Music: I enjoy many kinds of music — from chill acoustic and indie to jazz and lo-fi. Sometimes I listen to pop or old-school rock while making coffee. Music keeps the good vibes flowing! 🎧

Books: I like motivational and travel books, also Novel. I enjoy reading things that help me grow or inspire me to see the world from a new perspective.

Movies: I love movies with good stories — drama, adventure, or anything that makes you think or feel something real. Sometimes I just watch comedies or travel documentaries to relax.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

One amazing thing I’ve done was brewing coffee on a mountain while watching the sunrise — just me, my moka pot, and a view that made me realize how beautiful life can be. ☕🌅

I’ve also had the chance to guide travelers around Makassar and South Sulawesi, showing them hidden beaches, local food spots, and traditional culture. Every trip teaches me something new — and that’s what makes traveling so special. 🌍✨

Teach: I can teach you how to make great coffee, do latte art, or show you how to brew manually like a pro barista!
