CURRENT MISSION

Meeting interesting people from all around the globe.

ABOUT ME

I am a fashion designer/government official based in Medan. I spend most of my free time listening to music, watching films and binge-watching TV shows. I am pretty much into everything, city sight-seeing, beach/nature, historical sites or just strolling down the streets to find interesting foods and meeting locals.
I'd love to meet interesting people from all around the globe, sharing ideas about anything, making stupid jokes and laughing at random things.

PHILOSOPHY

You're never too old to have fun.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A friend told me about CS when we were planning a trip to Vietnam which happened to be canceled for some reasons.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Been hosted by fellow couchsurfers who I keep maintaining contact with, one of them ended up joining me on my trip to Bangkok years ago.
Meeting lots of travelers through meet-ups in Medan and also while traveling.
