About Me

A person that is interested in exploring and challenging myself to do different things.
I have been involved in 5 international competitions, with 3 of them receiving distinctions and awards.

I have always believed in the power of exploring, discovery and passion.
I also try to involve myself in causes, such as quality education, organic living, women empowerment and youth empowerment.

I am interested in many things, such as cooking, stargazing, sports, reading, drawing, singing, playing games and travelling.
I also love meeting new people and exchanging experiences. I believe that with the world getting more connected, it is best to have broader perspective of it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to try out things that is being enjoyed by the local as much as possible, including staying. I believe that the experience of staying in a local house provides another perspective of the local culture unseen to the tourists' eyes.

Furthermore, I am definitely not a picky person when it comes to a place to sleep, so couchsurfing is definitely the right choice for me
