Hello my name is John !

I was born and raised in the Philippines and have lived in California and Hawai'i.

I like to explore, read, make art, chill-- live a simple life with chill people :)

I am currently backpacking through Mexico to learn Spanish and eventually volunteer at a community in Oaxaca.

I enjoy helping people and have worked in social services-- with kids, adults, and elderly.

I like being outside and have experience working in permaculture farms, landscaping etc, as well as all sorts of food processing/cooking.

I have also worked with dogs and would love to work more with other animals !

I also paint and make all sorts art so let me know if you want to learn how to paint or craft anything :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

looking to meet locals and experience culture, people, and places!
