About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore the world, Experience different cultures, Meet nice people, Have fun and enjoy life!

ABOUT ME

My name is Josia. I work in the oil and gas industry, an explorer and student of life.

I like reading comic books, playing video games, working out and listening to music.

I'm a pleasant, relaxed and laid back guy. I don't really make a fuss about differences that exist in the world. My exposure towards parliamentary debating has taught me a lot about tolerance and how to see the world impartially.

I prefer conversations with individuals in smaller groups to really big parties.

I just simply want to take my backpack, travel and see the world whenever possible.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is a journey. Every moment is universally unique in time and space. There is only one life, and its short, so time must be used at most. Share with people you love, and know where you are standing. The most important thing is to always fight for your happiness, whatever it is.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surf and travel. Had a great experience couchsurfing in Thailand, Germany, Italy and UK and looking forward to do more.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed four times as of now and all were awesome experiences. Looking forward to another fruitful experience at some other place in this beautiful world.

Interests

My biggest interest is of course traveling! Interests that defines my traveling is to visit cultural heritage sites, unique architectures, museums and seeing wondrous natural landscapes and eating local cuisine.

In addition, I also like listening to music and playing video games (especially Final Fantasy series), photography, food and to discuss anything about the world and life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can't teach something super cool. I'm a jack of many trades, but a master of NONE, so let's leave the teaching for others. But of course I can teach you the Indonesian language.

I can share you my traveling experiences and my life in general.

I would like to learn world affairs, backpacking tips and photography.
