I am Ryan, born and raised in the Philippines and currently living in Dubai. I consider myself a casual traveler and travels whenever opportunity and budget allows. I am very much interested in history, culture and ways of living. I like trying new foods and food in general.

I am a friendly and very open-minded person, happy meeting new people and getting to know their culture. I love healthy discussions and annecdotes, maybe over a cup of coffee or tea or beer.

I consider myself a hobbyist photographer and very much interested in photowalks and photography. I do collect currency bills. I'd appreciate if you could spare 1 and to my collection.

⚠️ READ THIS CAREFULLY for HOSTING ⚠️

1. NO FREELOADERS! CS is not just free accommodation but a cultural exchange. So try to spend some time with me as your hosts.

2. COMPLETE YOUR PROFILE with proper profile photos regardless what you identify yourself as, use your awesome face in the profile, and yes, I do take time to read profiles.

3. LEAVE A REFERENCE. If you’re the person who couchsurf at someone’s place and doesn’t leave a reference, take some time to reflect on point 1😄 CS is based on feedback, don't forget it.

4. TAG ALONGS, if you're coming with someone else, inform me ahead of time and be sure that your friend has a CS mindset and preferably a CS profile too.

5. READ MY PROFILE and "COMMON SENSE" HOUSE RULES, to know what you're getting into!

Cheerio!
