Hi my name is Shona! I'm a 24 year old girl from Indonesia, I was born and bred in the capital city of Jakarta, Indonesia. I graduated from Curtin university early 2017 Bachelor of Arts in Mass Communication. Now currently living in Perth, Australia doing couple of freelancing jobs in film and advertising.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet new people, the locals especially to really learn their cultures and their country, deeper than just a tourist perspective.
I'm always on a tight budget since I'm living on my own and currently still looking for a permanent job, so it's always good to save up in some areas when you can while traveling. Besides what's the fun in traveling if I only stay in a fancy hotel and go with the tour bus?

Interests

I love everything, be prepared for this.
I love to watch movies, literally everything. If I have to pick one genre it's fantasy (I secretly wish the door to Narnia is real)
I love to read
I love to dance, been doing it since I'm little
I love to travel (duh)
I love to draw and do art and craft
I love to just sit by the window (imagine raining) and daydream
If you want to know more about me, we should chat

Music, Movies, and Books

I love listening to movie soundtracks.
My top three directors would be: Christopher Nolan, Tim Burton, and Rob Marshall.
Books: anything that's interesting enough to keep me reading

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I finished university :)

skydiving is on my list - waiting for that to be ticked off

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you Indonesian, so you won't get lost in Bali

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm very friendly and easygoing, I'm always curious and pretty open minded :) I'll try some new crazy stuff if that means getting the full experience! I'm up for a long history talk about a place or city as well as a long drive into the wilderness to appreciate mother nature.
I would love to make new friends and hear about your story, your culture and your country. I would be gladly to tell you about mine too :)
