Hi! My name is Merfren and I grew up in the Philippines. I am an outdoor enthusiast and I look forward in meeting locals and like-minded people who are also into travelling.
I travel as much as I can and would like to make a positive difference in this world.
Learning diverse culture, tradition and way of life of the country where I plan to go are my areas of interest.
At the same time, be able to impart and share my knowledge , insights and culture as well.

I am on Instagram too.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think that we use Couchsurfing because of our common interest--------
To travel as much country as we can and immerse ourself in the different cultures each country has to offer.

Couchsurfing reconnects and builds camaraderie among fellow travellers and backpackers.
I believe that each and every person has a story to tell and share.
That is why I am here to learn more about it and eventually make friends.
