I am a culture enthusiast. Having Anthropology as my undergrad major, I have always been passionate to learn about the ways and life of people from different cultural background. I want to experience life through their own senses and sensibilities. Plus, I want to bring my mother (retired primary teacher/senior citizen) to different places and let her have a wider worldview.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've always been interested to try this couchsurfing since I started my international travelling in 2012 but I never had the courage to really do things then in unorthodox ways. I would always stay in hotels since my companions would prefer that way. But now that I've heard from a friend how couchsurfing made all his travel in ASEAN possible and convenient, I am motivated to try it this time. In addition, since I decided to do my next travels abroad with my mom, I feel less worried about safety and stuff. 😅
