Overview
About Me
I AM FULLY VACCINATED and BOOSTED...
I'm a person who believes that we are all connected despite our differences in language, culture, beliefs, and origin. I like trying new things (nothing illegal though) as I believe in never-ending learning to grow and maximize our lives. I want spontaneity on my trips, to take pictures, and to meet people randomly to share friendships and conversations.
I'm fun and easy to be with as I'm very independent, patient and flexible with changes. I believe that having a positive outlook in life brings so many possibilities so don't stress out too much with whatever is happening or wherever you may be.
Lastly, I believe in a supreme God who is gracious and who has a purpose for all of us to discover and take as a mission.
P.S.: If you are sending me a couch request tell me what is your favorite color and the favorite country you have visited. This will let me know at least that you have read my profile and are not sending a copy-pasted request.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love traveling, be it alone or with my family and friends. I enjoy learning about new cultures, especially food from local communities, and seeing nature far away from touristy areas. I also like meeting new friends to learn and share exciting life stories, faith, and adventures. To join meetups or adventure events with other CouchSurfers, especially when I am overseas.
When hosting, I expect my guests to be mindful of cleanliness at my place and be mindful of personal and common space. I also don't expect surfers to stay more than 2 nights.

Music, Movies, and Books
I have strong enthusiasm for astronauts, demigods, wolves, and vampire stories. I also like science, astrology, and medical-related movies. I have no particular favorite music but I do not prefer hard metal rock.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I can't state just one!
- I reached the summit (Uhuru Point) of Mt. Kilimanjaro on the last sunset of 2017.
- I was a semi-finalist for an international travel media project and later on became part of their vlog when they went to my country: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5XCy01h0N3w&t=18s
- Spent a month living with an indigenous community in Southern Palawan, Philippines
- Went on a 2 weeks road trip off-grid in Namibia with 3 strangers I met at a hostel after talking with them for just about 15 minutes
- Was a national finalist in a search for our country's representative to outer space (Axe Apollo Project)
- Started a blogsite: www.outonamission.wordpress.com
Teach, Learn, Share
I can share my experiences in business, account management, project management, community development, and all the other things I did in the past. I can also share some photos and stories about my trips and adventures.
I want to learn more about photography, video editing, playing the violin, and speaking Spanish.
What I Can Share with Hosts
During meet-ups or surfing, I can share about all my travel experiences and interesting life thoughts. I can also help prepare food or cook for you and the family, or help you with washing dishes and cleaning the house. I can also offer/exchange massages as I've been practicing on it (I won't injure you, I promise!)
