My full name is Romani Guimbal Guanzon Jnr but people call me "Rome" like the city! I am currently 24 years old. Currently I am travelling Australia on a working holiday visa.

I was born in UK but both my parents are from the Philippines. I graduated from Bristol Institution of modern music university with a BaHONS degree in professional musicianship. I am keen on travelling around a little bit, meeting new faces and new places!

I lived the last 4 years in Bristol and was the guitarist in a Gypsy swing band called the "Lounge Cat Ideals", we played various festivals around the UK such as Smallworld festival, Maui Waui fest, Subsonic Weekender, Boomtown festival and Glastonbury festival. So I am always keen to meet new musicians! I'm sure we shall be jamming till the break of dawn!!! XD

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel a lot so.... this is the best way to meet new faces 😁
