About Me

Currently unable to host right now, but I'm always up for hanging out! Whether it's grabbing coffee, enjoying a beer, or sharing a meal, I'm all about good company and great conversations. People often tell me I'm fun to be around and have a contagious energy that brings laughter to the group.

I've organized various events:
29 Sep 2023 - Sofar Concert Makati
29 Oct 2023 - Binondo Chinatown Foodcrawl
2 Dec 2023 - Sofar Concert Makati
14 Jan 2024 - Lunch at BGC
14 Feb 2024 - Friendly Valentine’s Dinner at BGC
23 March 2024 - Salcedo Weekend Market + Escape Room
6 April 2024 - Light Festival at BGC

4 July 2024 - Binondo Chinatown Foodcrawl
8 Nov 2024 - Binondo Chinatown Food Crawl + Pasig River Esplanade
… and other spontaneous hangouts when I feel like it.

I usually join the regular Thursday meetup here in Manila. If you want to join the meetup, and don’t want to come by yourself, hit me up, I’d be happy to tag along with you!

I've explored quite a few spots in the Philippines like Boracay, Siargao, Bohol, El Nido, Puerto Galera, Cebu (Moalboal, Bantayan Island), Ilocos, Siquijor, Pangasinan, Batangas, Caramoan, Baguuo, etc, so if you need travel tips or help planning your itinerary, just give me a shout!

And ohh, if you speak German, teache me, bitte! Haha
