About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Travelling and getting to know different cultures are my hobbies and hosting someone in the area I live in when I don't have the time to travel would be really awesome :)
ABOUT ME
Hey everyone! I'm basically a very easygoing and outgoing person who loves to travel a lot. When I was 8 my family moved to Ho Chi Minch City, Vietnam and lived there for 7 years. I went to International school of Ho Chi Minh City. I met and get to know a lot of people from different countries, and from this point on I became really interested in getting to know people all around the world and travelling.
After my stay in Vietnam I moved back to Jakarta for 1 year. Then I went on an exchange student to America for 1 year. There I graduated high school at age 17. When I got back I went to a University in Jakarta (that was 2009) studying Hotel Management and Tourism.
During my 7 months stay in Germany for internship purposes, I've been traveling with my friends to a lot of towns and big cities in Germany (Frankfurt, Soest, Koeln, Dusseldorf, Leverkusen, Muenster, Dortmund, Aachen, Bonn, Stuttgart, Freiburg, Munich, Berlin, Hamburg), and countries:
1. Netherlands (Breda, Haague, Amsterdam, Rotterdam)
2. Belgium (Brussels & Louvain-La-Neuve)
3. Switzerland (Zurich, Lausanne, Lucerne, Bern, Basel)
4. Spain (Madrid & Toledo)
5. Italy (Rome, Genova/Genoa, Milano)
6. France (Paris)!
During these stays I've made a lot of new friends who I still keep in contact with (well not all haha). It was the best traveling experience I've ever had!
PHILOSOPHY
There are so much to see in this wold in so little time, so let's not waste any opportunities!
