CURRENT MISSION

The answers to life's questions are written on a rock somewhere and I am bound to find it.

ABOUT ME

Would rather talk, discuss, walk, run, jump, experience than read, write and stay in one corner. I am restless and being alone equates to death. As discourse is very important to me, learning languages and cultures interests me the most. I am very open-minded and definitely easy to get along with.

I am still in the process of finding out what I really want to do with my life. Sometimes, what you're good at is not what you really want to do until you leave this world. I think traveling really helps to discover one's limits, and consequently, possibilities.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is best lived if lived for others. One is a mere speck in a massive crowd. He will discover himself the more he looks outward. You and I are born to change the world, to make it more livable.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

The CS2 Project is all about cultural exchange, building a peaceful and listening world through discourse and tolerance. Though my contributions would just be my time and my efforts, I believe this can encourage others to do the same, to listen, to understand, to talk, to be diplomatic. Maybe, just maybe, this effect will grow exponentially!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

A one-month solo backpacking adventure in Spain, pretty tiring, financially draining, but life-changing.

Seeing my flatmate's pet snake devour a mouse. It was Animal Planet live!

教，学，和分享

I love learning languages and it would be cool if I could speak more :) I can teach my native Tagalog, English, and the little I know in French and Spanish. I dance salsa, bachata, and merengue, wouldn't mind sharing some "pasos" I know. As I love eating, I was forced to learn how to cook, so I could whip some Filipino food up for my guests/hosts!
