CURRENT MISSION

traveling to Asia, and beyond, on a practical note.

ABOUT ME

Just an average mixed asian guy. Dad's roots are from China ,Mom is Filipino.

I am passionate about travelling and food tasting ! I have always been interested with world history , ancient architecture and experiencing cultural differences, as well as finding similarities. Traveling for me is like experiencing history come to life.

When visiting places, I always make a point to check on morning markets to get some glimpse how foreign communities start up their day.

I walk a lot !

PHILOSOPHY

Focus on the positive at all times (or at least trying to be one.)

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Was invited by my friend Alia , who is currently living in Poland .

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Got to know two couch surfing guys in India, and they generously extended their help to me, which made my short visit in their country easier.

Got to meet a couch surfer's family in Kathmandu. We went to trek Nagarkot , and I visited their home for some late afternoon siesta and snacks.

Couch surfed in Brunei for two nights! More than just touring the place, I actually Experienced what its like to LIVE and Spend a weekend in Brunei , just by tagging along with my host, and going their usual weekend stuff. It was pretty memorable.

Cheers to the friendship i found through CS !

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Witnessing Total Solar Eclipse at a time when our city was the center. Darkness literally swallowed our day for a few minutes... It was like an 8pm cloudy sky type of darkness.
