I was born in Manila, Philippines and was raised in the downtown core of the Toronto "The 6", Canada. I currently live in Seoul, South Korea, working as an English teacher for elementary and middle school students.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I left my beautiful friends and family in Toronto to move to Seoul. I live for living life to its full potential and learning more about other cultures. Toronto is already a multicultural city and I'd love to see these cultures I grew up listening to in motion.

I'm all about traveling and exploring new places. I'm always up for an adventure with new friends, learning and experiencing what the world has in store.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Besides leaving my life in Toronto to move to Seoul, I have bungee jumped in Whistler, (Beautiful) British Columbia.

Teach, Learn, Share

I graduated with a major in English for the reason that I love teaching it. If there is anything I could share with the world, it is the the power of language. I am fluent in English and have finally re-mastered my parents' dialects, Tagalog and Ilocano. As of this year, I am officially a level 3 Korean speaker, hoping to make that #4 on my list.

Be it through song lyrics in a popular song, overflowing emotions poured through a dance, or plain basic communication, I want others to understand what I have learned to value the most.
