ABOUT ME

I'm a theater artist-turned-journalist as I gave up trying to be both. I love to travel a lot. Went to a Southeast Asian backpacking trip in 2008. Went to Germany, France and Luxembourg in 2009. Went to Rome and Spain, and got bored in Marrakech in 2010. I was sent to an official business to Paris and Toulousse in 2011 and loved every bit of it! And just recently, I went back to Paris, the Netherlands, Prague, Venice, Florence and Rome. I like anything artsy and I like to talk. I was born to talk.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm an achiever for God and the Philippines.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I don't have a house of my own so I can't offer any couch. But I know Metro Manila quite well (as well as my province, Batangas). I can show potential guests around and share lots of inside stories 'bout my country.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

* I join gatherings of CS Manila whenever possible.
* I CouchSurfed with David Kemp in Rome. Twas awesome as there were three of us surfers at that time - Jonas from Germany and Heather from Florida!
* Had a wonderful dinner with Roberta in Rome.
* Met Antonina from Ukraine in Barcelona, and now we keep in touch through CouchSurfing.
* Met Felicia from Arizona in Granada, and we are CouchSurfing and Facebook friends, too!
