Updated "about me" March 2024

Firstly, thanks guys for reaching me out and allow me to introduce myself.

I'm one of the CSing member who been active on this platform since the beginning and always love to make new friends or being connected with everyone from all over the world. I treat everyone equally the same either local or foreigner. The color, language, look or even the culture are different indeed but in the end we're all just the same human being.

Be respectful and caring for people always be my point of life, and I hope everyone do the same especially by accepting the differences between us.

FYI :
Btw I no longer to live in Jakarta. I currently live in Tangerang city due to my new job. It's like the same city, closer to the airport and less crowded.

It's 15 - 20 mins from Jakarta, that's a reason I still go around Jakarta all the time to meet my friends especially from CSing.

"Ohya, Please direct read my home section to read more updated info about my availability if you guys have any plan to request to stay with me".

My favourite activities are so random.I like walking, sharing or talking about the life experience and culture exchange with new people.
I love visiting the nature often or just hangout with friends in the city. I ride motorbike very much but sometimes also use public transport in Jakarta since it is easy, cheaper and pretty good tho. When I host people, I may take them around with this style too. :)

I cook often, especially for Indonesia cuisines. As far as I'm concerned, I think it's almost impossible when I didn't cook for people who stayed at my place. Hehe.

I've been always interested of sharing everything related to business ideas, nature and new culture. I work out at the gym sometime (that's why I'm skinny, lol), interested of learning our Indonesia tradisional massage and the best singer in the bathroom :v
---------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm originally from North Sumatra where a lot of people come there especially to Medan city and continue their trip to other destinations such as "Bukitlawang" (Jungle Trek and Wild Orangutans), "Lake Toba" (Amazing volcano lake & stunning view) or Tangkahan (Jungle area which often called as the hidden paradise of north sumatra), etc.

I went to those places above a lot of time either alone or with friends (included CSers). Until now, I still help CouchSurfing friends often to guide them exploring this my hometown remotely with several good tips. So if you need any information about Medan city around, feel free to text me. I know how to get Lake toba cheapest, jungle trek to bukitlawang, public transport around, and other things else.

You can read the references by many Couchsurfers on my profile that I've met or I hosted to know more about myself. And if you want to be connected to me through social media, I'm also on Instagram @irsanchen

Well that's all I guess and hopefully to see you. Have wonderful experience together ! Cheers 🍻

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is the best way to be connected with new people from all over the world. Also the best way to build my relation such as a friendship, learn new culture, listen to life stories from foreign people directly and absolutely the most useful community that will always make my travel experience become easier or even much more interesting.

兴趣

Nature such as the beach, lake, jungle, and the other quiet places else. I actually also enjoy spending my time in cozy coffeeshop in the city.

The most interesting thing in life for me is mostly about the connection of people and diversity in this world.

• culture
• traveling
• business
• religion
• nature
• lifestyle
• friendship
• halal food
• traditional massage

音乐、电影和书籍

My choices mostly go to the songs by Jessie J, Adelle, Ed Sheeran, Whitney Houston, ex 1D, Calum Scott.. everything about melancholic or depressing songs 😅.

I'm not a book person tho and if I do, I prefer to read something light. Maybe psychology stuff and health books.

I kinda love watching fantasy movie, romantic, travel experience, culture, even the movie about animal 😊

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

When I eventually could start my travel to some countries aboard by my own, bcs I was born in poor family and I was one of those who thought that travel to out of my country was kinda impossible to happen due to my financial issue.

教，学，和分享

I'm considered myself as an open minded person, I learn about any new thing from others with opened heart and mind.

I'd love to teach my guests as well about Indonesia culture, tips, stories or the other things that I know.

Absolutely sharing stories and experience each other as well.
