About Me

CURRENT MISSION

save some money for travels :-)

ABOUT ME

I am a simple girl really. Growing up in the Philippines and studying in an International school always gave me the thirst to learn from other cultures. It was the best 10 years of my life.

I moved to Switzerland to do an internship for 9 months. I enjoyed it so much that I stayed whole 4 years, where I also met my boyfriend Max. We are both at the point in life where we wanted to do something.

So we quited our work, left our appartement and venture out to latin america.

We dont regret one single thing.

PHILOSOPHY

The most important thing I learned is to "Love what you do".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

5 years ago I was looking for websites which could be useful during travels but how it is sometimes in life, plans change.
Now that our travel plans became real I joined CS and we are so happy that we did.

Interests

Travelling, Reading, Dancing, Climbing, Learning new things

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies:
I love comedy and Horror movies. I get this tingly feeling I need to escape the daily stress of work.

Music:
If you look into my Ipod it is quite mixed. I have rock, hip hop, trance, house, I listen to quite everything and it depends mostly on my mood.

Books:
I used to read a lot of books. At the moment I can not say that I am reading any. I started alot but I never get to finish one.
