I'm travelling now until APRIL 2020
See you when I get back to Bandung :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to practice my English and Luna inspired me to learn Deutsch.
So if you want to correct my English in my profile, you are very welcome, feel free to send me a message!

Also i am fascinated by multi-culturals and anything else that give life the extra dimensions from people who i've met in CouchSurfing.

Interests

I'm a music enthusiast who enjoy sports but not the competitive one because feel like i have to win, used to play basketball and softball tho.

• sightseeing
• walking
• outdoor activities such as hiking, riding a bike, jogging, snorkling, maybe want to try skydiving.
• meaningful/deep/interesting/heartwarming/infomartive conversations or whatever you call it or could you simply tell me who you are, am interested to get to know you too! But NOT looking for dating, have to mention it just so we're clear.
• live performances.
• sunset, sunrise, stargazing, sky
• salsa dancing, Hiphop, zumba for fun! (not an expert, as in can't teach you any of it)
• trying local foods is a must for me, it's the part of experiencing travel, but don't want my travel to be all about foods either.
P.S: absolutely NO to eat dog, frog, catfish, any kind of blood and anything that still alive.

Oh did i mention that i am not a fan of touristy and crowded places? unless it's a historical or has something to do with nature or live performances or it's really really really worth to see, you have to convince me tho ;)
