Grew up in New York, Bern, Nairobi and currently settled down in Jakarta. I'm pretty eclectic and am all about traveling! I love learning new things, meeting new people and sharing experiences with others.

My profile is still under construction since I'm really new here. If you wanna know more about me, feel free to send a message! :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd love to show you around Jakarta. Would love to be shown around by a local in all the different cities out there :)

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
Almost everything! I love playing, listening, and talking about music—be it current trends or theoretically breaking down music—and I'm constantly discovering and liking new sounds. From neo-soul, alternative RnB, classical piano, jazz, gospel, rock, chill EDM, funk, pop, you name it.

Currently into Tom Misch, Matt Corby, Daniel Caesar, Sting, Coldplay, Radiohead, Anderson .Paak, Honne, Frank Ocean, Major Lazer, The Killers, Rudimental, Honne.

Movies:
The Lion King, Mulan, Aladdin, The Prince of Egypt, Arrival, Split, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, 500 Days of Summer, Annie Hall, Jeux D'enfants, etc. I love Disney animation, musicals, coming of age and romcoms, films on history, culture, religion, humanity, sci-fi.

Books:
The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown, Tuesdays with Morrie by Mitch Albom, Kafka on the Shore and Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami, Kite Runner by Khaled Hosseini, Bumi Manusia by Pramoedya Ananta Toer, and 1984 by George Orwell.
