I am currently a student based in Melbourne, working as a part time software developer. I grew up in Manila, Philippines, but I've been living in Australia for over a year now.

I'm pretty chill--I love watching different movies and listening to pop, indie, and psychedelic music when I'm indoors, but I wouldn't mind running, biking, and hiking when the weather is right!

By the way, I also love taking photos. I always have my camera when I travel, and I feel happy when I take portraits of people and they love it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Currently living in a nice apartment that has enough space for a company. Also, I've never been able to interact with a lot of people due to my busy schedule, so I was hoping to meet them through Couchsurfing.
