ABOUT ME

Formerly loves a good party and staying late @ night but is now loving great talks over glasses of reds. I like traveling a lot. With so much energy within, I would want to go explore places, discover a lot of things, make new friends and experience more out of life. I hate to admit it but I hope I am not an introvert.

I am also a bookworm buddy, a couch potato, nature lover, film freak, an avid gamer and a backpack tripper (waterfall jumping, mountaineering etc).I'm a good listener, a team player and an audiophile.I do get nervous on unexpected things, few revelations and gifts of chances~ I fully embrace the unforeseen. I tend to sleep with a little of any music swinging around. Music brings the peace in me. I love sunsets more than a sunrises.

STILL ON A CHASE TO FIND THE PLACE I WILL BE LIVING IN FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE....

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To accentuate global connections. To meet like-minded people ~ learn, discover, play, enjoy, see, hear, and feel the world on my own and shared perspectives.

Interests

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to share some of my travel stories, of my experiences and how things changes me from day 1 to day 100. I want to learn different things too~ ranging from languages to culture, from arts to music, my hobbies versus yours. What I like versus what I really love and the things and people and experiences that matters to me. I would like to share the very best of me from all the people I will be meeting in the future, for the traveler's and random strangers. I should know that shared experiences is more than a teacher.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer hosts my good company. Im an avid and a good listener. I love exchanging stories on culture, world views, travel experiences, music and film related things. I love to do road trips and backpacking so I would know how to please people and a specific time if I needed to. Respectful and a funny guy. Respecting people and their culture and the way they live. Fun on things like a little party and a cycle around the town excites me. I can offer my host my company and I hope to give some souvenirs back in my country for the exchange of their wonderful company too.
