Hi! My name is Ken Erra Shackelford, but you can call me Ken or Erra. I recently moved back to Indonesia from the US. I'm married and have a super adorable son :)

I hold a Master’s Degree in Asymmetric Warfare from the Faculty of Defense Strategy at the Indonesian Defense University, and I completed my undergraduate studies in Law.

I'm passionate about exploring new cultures, learning languages, and volunteering. That's why I'm here—to connect with new people, hear their amazing experiences, and gain insights into their perspectives on various topics.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My sister told me about this app. I've met some people from all over the world and we had such a very unforgettable moment. So I think I'll make my own account and have my own experience.
