ABOUT ME
I'm a cheerful and infinitely curious person. I get joy from the smell of grass and feel of sand. I have a deep love for art and architecture-can stay in museum or roam around looking at old buildings all day. I love the beach and what lies beneath it. I love music, ballet and musicals, albeit the choice can be eclectic. I love dogs and adore cats (Note to self: should I get rid of the cat and get a man?) I learned to cook very well out of necessity (Note to self:should have taken home economics instead of Masters in Economics). A lone wolf, I often travel alone. Not one who just takes pictures, I want to live, breathe and experience the place like the locals during my short visits (Note to self: Now that's the difference between watching porn and making love! ha ha)
PHILOSOPHY
Live, laugh and give lots of amore!
我为什么加入 Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Share what I have if I can. I am deadset in leaving a positive impression about the Philippines and its people in the mind and the heart of every traveler who crosses my path (Note to self: Ask someone if it sounded like a threat)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I was introduced to CS by fellow free spirits who were studying between tours in New Zealand (ha ha crazy women!). I was mostly WWOOFing at that time (unless I get tempted by the pool and jacuzzi in the hostel) but CS planted an idealism that I cannot shake off my system - mutual trust and belief in the inner goodness of the person. So far, I have never been disappointed.

音乐、电影和书籍
I watch plenty of movies! I'm usually drawn to sci-fi, action, musical, comedy, zombies and Clive Owen movies. But a good script and great acting always hit the mark (e.g. Casablanca,Fiddler on the Roof,When Harry Met Sally, The Big Bang Theory, The Family Guy?). My taste in music is pretty eclectic. My collection ranges from classical to heavy metal. The sound of Spanish guitar and violin makes me emotional. Jazz turns my knees into jelly. Portishead and Metallica make me want to smoke some weed and stay stoned permanently. ha ha Books- man! too many to mention. Works of God,Hardy,Dostoyevsky,Maya Angelou, King, Barker, Sachs, Coellho, Tolkien, Gaiman,Machiavelli, Rizal... I just love the smell of books!

教,学,和分享
I am an eternal student.My curiosity drives me to thirst for new knowledge. I love to know how you wash dishes to how you run the government in your country. In exchange, I can tell you about my country's history and the quality, peculiarity and idiosyncrasy of my people.
