Overview
About Me
1. Keep Calm and Read My Bio 👍
2. Please send me an unique request text (NOT copy and paste)
3. No reference? Join a Weekly Couchsurfing event and ask for "Personal Reference"
4. I am here to become your friend, what about you?
I settled down in Berlin after travelling a little more than 50 countries for 3 years.
Yes, I found a city I would like to live for life, and I am truly grateful for that.
But still, I am a holiday traveller, hope to visit every single country before I die.
I have several missions going while I travel:
1. Finding where is the best place/city/country I can fit-in to live n work n play ☑️
2. Seeing what kind of demand/supply exist all around the world/who needs help
3. Run some projects to help people above
4. Researching for my own project called AROUNDERS
5. To know n love people all race, all culture, all religions, all over the world❤️
And yeah about me...
People say I am passionate, full of curiosity, and also easy going.
I don't really look for sightseeing stuff, but more interested in local life and bonding.
PHILOSOPHY
1. "Live as you have planned. Otherwise, you will plan as you have lived" (me)
2. "Things are there to be known by you" (also me)
3. "Don't change, you add" (aaaand me)
4. "Don't worry, be happy" (not me :D)
Are you still curious about me? Thanks!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
As a host:
1. I can make friends from all over the world.
2. Having a friend from the country makes me care more about the people in the country, and makes me wanna visit there.
I believe if everybody has a friend from each country, there will be no more exploitation and war.
As a guest:
1. I like to spend time with local people and learn how their lives are like.
2. I can easily reach out to the best person in any cities, cuz you are the best (and most likely speaks English :D)
