Overview
About Me
I'm a 24 year old entrepreneur from Manila, Philippines. I was born in Singapore, but grew up in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I've been in the Philippines for the past 10 years but Im currently living in London and traveling Europe.
I love barbecues, sangria, the ocean, and sunny days!
I especially love it when things don't go according to plan, because I think that's how you have the best adventures.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I love giving travelers tips for their trips to the Philippines. I travel a lot in within my country and know a lot of places that are off the map and tourist tracks. I would also love to host when I go back to Manila!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Definitely out of my comfort zone but usually the best things are. :) I love meeting new people, and am often surprised by the hospitality that people have for fellow travelers.
Interests
Food and beverage, social gatherings that are unique, travel, and nightlife. I like meeting fellow entrepreneurs and discussing ideas.
Music, Movies, and Books
Lana del Rey, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Bloc Party, Kings of Leon, Foals, and anything that tells a story through music.
Fight Club, almost anything with Tom Hanks, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Donnie Darko, About Time, Wolf of Wall Street.
Most Tim Burton and Quentin Tarantino films.
Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close, most books by John Green, Harry Potter (of course), Fight Club, The Kite Runner, The Time Travelers Wife.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Taught English for 6 weeks in the Czech Republic!
Teach, Learn, Share
I'd love to teach others about the situation in the Philippines and other countries in Asia. Many people have a certain idea about Asia being a mystic, oriental pearl but it also has many dark realities.
What I Can Share with Hosts
A nice touch of Filipino hospitality!
