I enjoy the peace I feel waking up to paddy fields and a clear blue sky, or even a cloudy rainy day with the earthy scent in the air. Nothing makes me happier than being surrounded by nature, on a hike up in the mountains, munching on a 7-11 toastie with a jazz playlist plugged into my ears.
I smile and wave at every doggo that I pass by, and dream of a day when I can adopt 'em all on my farm. That's the kind of chaos I wouldn't mind living amongst for the rest of my life.

I'm an ex-architect and now a digital nomad. I run an e-commerce brand with my lil sister; designing and selling stationery! Quite a drastic shift, but it's enabled my dream of working remotely which wasn't possible earlier. I love creating things whether it's designing a product, a web page or just articulating a thought on paper, it brings me joy!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To broaden my perspective on the world and hear stories about your travels

Interests

Things I love to talk about:
Can talk about movies all day, do you have one that you've watched more than a couple of times and it's still as refreshing as the first? I'm curious about design - visuals, typography, products, furniture and architecture. I'm also really fascinated with history, nature documentaries, psychology, and just about anything that doesn't involve math, crypto, or coding, hah! Although I'm really interested in all the buzz around A.I lately.

Hobbies and Travel:
I love making short movies of the places that I've been to. Nothing comes close to the warmth I feel when meeting good people and making genuine connections as I wander around the globe. Self-discovery through travel has always been more valuable to me than ticking places off a map.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I joined Workaway in Japan, where in 1 month I worked 3 jobs - A potato farmer, A football coach for kids, and an assistant at a ski lodge (which was more fun than work, not gonna lie)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share all I know about the virtual world of eCommerce, marketing, and design.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm quite an obsessive neat-freak so if you need I can help you organize your space (like Marie Kondo, haha). I can also help you pick out new plants for your space cos I love gardening! I'd love to help around the kitchen if you're okay with my sub-par culinary skills 😅
