After thinking a lot about it, I finally quit my job to fulfill my dream of travelling. I am am taking a year off to see the world. I wish to meet people and experience the local culture through Couchsurfing. Appreciate if you could be a part of my travel story.

I am passionate about travelling and it is what drives me. I wish I can quit my job and travel the world but I can't so what I can do for now is to host travelers. In that way, I am able to live my dream through them. I live in Makati, the central business district of Philippines. My place is about 6 km and 10 minutes by cab from the airport so it is ideal for backpackers who are making Manila as transit to other local destination. When you arrive at the airport, take a regular white taxi or yellow taxi to my place. You should pay around PHP150 for white taxi and around PHP300 for yellow taxi. You may take the skyway and pay toll and tell the driver to exit Dela Rosa. My place is immediately right after the exit. I will give you exact direction once your stay is confirned. Please read my home/room situation so you know what to expect. Thanks!
