About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To take over the world after I figure out what I want to do with my life.

ABOUT ME

And now I've moved to Bangkok! :) Will be staying here for the next two years to study. Let's explore Bangkok together :)

Born in Quezon City, Philippines. Moved to Ottawa, Canada for a few years when I was little. Moved back to Quezon City. Lived and worked in Chiang Mai, Thailand for a year -- it'still my favorite city in Thailand.

I love hanging out with people. I'm an extrovert and I have a great time talking to people about anything and everything. Driving soothes my nerves. Photography and Travel top my list of interests. Basketball used to complete me but after High School it kinda took the backseat to life. But I still love to shoot hoops every now and then. I'm an only child and its just me and my mom. This is probably why I really love my friends. They have become my family. Drinking is fun, may it be coffee or tons of alcohol. LOL.

I'd love to go on a Photowalk or do a food trip with you. :)

PHILOSOPHY

As cliche as this is,what the heck

Live life to the fullest. Coz if you don't, who else will? :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd love to show people around. :) Discuss travels, life and whatnot over a round of alcohol or coffee. I'd love to meet you!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Well, couch surfing in houses of friends and family friends across the world. They let me squat so that I don't need to pay for my accommodations. LOL :)

This is the best way to get to know a place, I think. Staying and hanging out with locals. They know every corner and would have the best advice for you. :D

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: I've been reading a lot of chick lit lately (please don't judge me! my brain just doesn't want to cooperate after all the reading I do for school). Fave books are by Judy Blume and Bill Bryson. All time faves are Catcher and the Rye and 1984.

Movies: I love romantic comedies. Love Actually tops my list. New York I love you, Paris, 500 Days of Summer Jerry Maguire, Goodwill Hunting are also some fave of mine. I also like foreign films like El crimen del padre amaro, y tu mama tambien, Paris Je T'aime etc.

Shows: Goodness. I love watching series'! Loved Friends, Dawsons Creek, Gilmore Girls and Charmed when I was younger. These days I watch NCIS, Criminal Minds, Bones, 2 Broke Girls, HIMYM, The Big Bang Theory, Modern Family, Suits and New Girl.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen a whole lot of amazing things. The museums in Vietnam and the USA. The hustle in bustle of people in New York. The gorgeous sites in Thailand. The first drops of snowflakes in Canada.

The most amazing for me: the people I get to meet along the way. Its just so comforting to know that a whole lot of people will take time to help you out when you're lost, will smile at you when you're tired and will try to explain something even if you don't understand each other. The goodness of humans always amaze me.
