About Me

Moved to London 3 years ago and looking forward to introducing this amazing city to people from around the world.
I've done quite a bit of travelling and growing through meeting people from different backgrounds.
I'm still trying to figure out life - through reading and writing when static, and through experiencing new cultures when on the move!
I got as far as: all I know is that I know nothing!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing to make sure my trip is special and unforgettable. I believe that discovering a place is as much about sight seeing as it is about social life (and food!). I consider myself as an altruist and I find real satisfaction from learning about people's lives.

Interests

I graduated a few years ago but I believe in exercising a variety of things. My practice comprises writing, moving through space, painting, and many other ways of living life through the mind and the body.

Music, Movies, and Books

Life inspirations: Simone de Beauvoir, Colette, Lee Miller.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Getting a traditional Kalinga tattoo in the Philippines with my brother.
Another one would be 2 hours of non stop step climbing to reach a pagoda in Hpa-An Myanmar. Amazing inner experience and views at the top!

Teach, Learn, Share

Sharing travel experiences and good meals. Love playing board games with a cup of tea and a piece of cake as much as going out for a glass of wine and party.
