Hello!

I am Parada. I'm happy to be called "Prada" as they sound quite similar, and it is always what people hear my name at the first time. I grew up in Thailand, studied in China, spent a year in Belgium, and now I’m back to my homeland. I really enjoy it, to live in different countries, to do and learn various things and I'm really excited to see where the life will take me to.

I consider myself as an open-minded, laid-back and friendly person. Sometimes I can be crazy. And sometimes I can be shy. I love to learn new things, and this makes me have many interests. I love learning foreign languages and cultures. I enjoy music. My favorite kind is live music. I play ukulele and love to sing. If you also enjoy it, we can always make a small concert just for fun. I also enjoy beach, food, beer, nice conversation etc. All these things always keep me alive. But what makes me excited the most is travelling.

I don't travel just to visit the attractions. I love to learn how people in the places I visit live. I love to talk to the local, share opinions and learn their languages/cultures. I enjoy hearing the histroy of the places. And I like to spend time in one city for quite a long time, so that I have more chance to experience local things. I sometimes choose to volunteer for a project I'm interested as travelling. And it is always a good time for me. And of course, CouchSurfing is also my favorite way of travelling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

- Couchsurfing makes me meet so many cool people. I get inspired a lot from them.
- I like to share and hear stories from all around the world.
- Like what Couchsurfing quote says, "to travel like a local"
- When I'm not doing my favorite thing( which is travelling) , meeting Couchsurfers keeps me alive and it makes me feels like I'm still travelling
- [Most Important One] I don't like to dance alone in the club, so I also here to find cool dancing buddies! 🤣
