About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Just looking for that special something

ABOUT ME

I'm a Filipino-born Australian currently teaching and living in Korea. I love to travel and meet new people and be surrounded by creativity. I try to see the beauty in all things and look at life in a positive light - trying to live up to the name...

PHILOSOPHY

"This, I think, is part of the impulse that moves many a traveler - the chance to confront the questions and challenges that she would never see at home."
- Pico Iyer

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I currently don't have a couch to host people in as I live at school, but hopefully soon when I move.

On the other hand, I'm open to meeting up or at least give you advice about Korea!
