About Me

I am an Indonesian currently living in Bangkok, Thailand. Just an ordinary guy who has strong passion for traveling and be a globetrotter. Most of the time, I travel by myself. Being a solo traveler gives more independence and flexibility. It would be great if I can have a travel buddy with whom I can share my vision about traveling, though. I just haven't found one :).

Couchsurfing allows me to connect with other travelers, either as host, surfer or traveller to explore and hang out with. I met many friends with whom I still keep in touch and a bunch of amazing people from them I learn a lot about traveling, live and networking from Couchsurfing.

If you send request, please bear in mind that I DO NOT host couple, hence solo traveler only. The is because I live in a small condo so either we share bed or you sleep in single air bed. So it's for our convenient reason. And, please add 'Kumaha damang' at the beginning of your request.

I'm flexible to accept request, but since my work schedule is change from time to time, I may and may not be able to host.

*IMPORTANT THING*

If I host you means I TRUST you. I give you permission for the key and access card while I’m away to work. PLEASE DO NOT TAKE ADVANTAGE AND BEING DISRESPECTFUL by inviting stranger to my place WITHOUT my consent. CS expérience is about mutual RESPECT from host and surfer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

to meet new people and share our life and traveling experience. and to connect with fellow travelers to explore or hangout with.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Recently just comeback from solo trip from France, Portugal and Spain met with great hosts and people. What an amazing experience!

Swimming from the beach to boat after enjoying sunset too much in Komodo Island. No more energy left but Fortunately I managed to get on the boat after dark.

Survived in forest fire while hiking a mount outside Bandung with fellow couchsurfers. Man,,...... we're literally trapped in the middle of the fire with thick smoke and almost out of breath. Fortunately, some locals came up and rescued us.
