About Me

I'm Jenthe, Jen for anyone who cant pronounce that or cant remember my real name. Have been seeing a lot of the world the past years, and i am still loving it. I am an easygoing person, who likes experiencing new things and new people. I spend one year in the philippines where i was very active in cs Manila, the greatest cs community there is. Now i am back how i try to host people once and a while, and i go to a lot of meet-ups. Loving it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just love the philosophy around it, paying it forward! Also, its a great way of meeting different people from all parts of the world! Also love the events, especially the ones on Manila.

I like chocolate. Really. Seriously.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
Very broad: From The Beatles to The Naked and the Famous to Nina Simone to M.I.A to Bob Marley to The Pixies to Buraka Som Sistema - you name it!

Books:
I love reading, especially roadbooks and autobiografic novels, like:
On the Road (Jack Kerouac - all time favorite)
Tweak - Nic Sheff (very impressive! Read it!)
Anything of Khaled Housseini
Into The Wild - Jon Krakauer

Movies:
Also very broad, but most of the time I like supercrazy absurd movies (Paprika, Inglorious Bastards, Being John Malkovitch and Fawlty Towers) or just really pretty movies (9, Up) or movies that just make you smile (Garden State, Little Miss Sunshine)
