I'm a business owner passionate most about the food industry and learning about other cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's a great way to meet authentic people of diverse cultures.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I moved to NYC from the Philippines without knowing a single soul in the city. I managed to go from hostel, to apartment, to career person, to culinary student, to mother and business person over the course of 4 years. It was the most crucial experience to my independence.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach your how to cook and bake. I can help you with a few itineraries for future places to visit... given that I've already been there.

I used to do chocolate tastings in NYC and would love to share a chocolate tasting class for you and your friends, which would consist of a hand carried collection of chocolates from all over the world.

I would like to learn about the local cultures and influences from you.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I also bear the gifts of Philippine Mangos, the best in the world. Usually I'll take a few trinkets to share.
