An Indonesian here, and it's only since 2022 ago that I've had the courage to do traveling solo. I'm currently working in a construction project team and it's great to meet other people with similar interests, background or occupations while traveling. Despite working full-time, I always make time to travel either alone or with relatives/family.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think with couchsurfing, it gives me the opportunity to meet people who have some similarities and exchange ideas related to anything that makes me learn new things and opens my mind to see this vast world.

Interests

Whenever I visit a place, museum tours, tasting local specialties, interacting with locals as well as visiting famous landmarks are mandatory and what I am most interested in doing.

• culture
• outdoor activities
• languages
• solo travel
• food
• nature
• museums
• traditions

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I’m a multi-genre fans, basically I can listen to any music.
From Tchaikovsky to Björk, from Brit pop to K-pop. Like.. everything.

Movies: Horror and thriller are still my faves, though I’m a scaredy cat. Oh and all the Harry Potter saga.

Books: I mostly read fiction, self development and travelogue.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So many amazing things have been accomplished that one is not enough... LOL. So here are my 3 amazing things:

I went snorkeling to Labuan Bajo with friends in 2020 and managed to witness a school of manta rays swimming in the deep sea. Although, I was on the verge of drowning at the time!.

My first solo trip was not really for fun. In 2022 I was experiencing anxiety, and I decided to go to Bali, Ubud to be precise, to get away from all the hustle and bustle. Since then I have found a lot of self-reflection and discovered the joys of traveling solo.

Back in 2023, I won a free round-trip ticket to Hong Kong.
I've always wanted to visit their Disneyland since I was a kid, and I made it happen!.

Countries I’ve Visited

Hong Kong, Macao, Philippines, Singapore
