About Me

I am a curious graphic designer from Bangkok, Thailand. I call it the city of mess. No matter how many years I have been around this peculiar Bangkok, I still feel like I don't know it well enough.

In the sea of people, I'm always delighted to see the spectrum of our love species.
My mates say I am eccentric but friendly. I love the biodiversity of our planet. I enjoy good conversations. I love to be among enthusiastic people who keep me inspired and alive.

I can't describe myself accurately as I change through the years. Only the dead stays the same. ;-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can bring you around Bangkok if I had time. I'd like to have a good conversation with travellers. Bangkok surely has its charms. It's a hectic and bizarre place. Everything is spontaneous and in disorder but it's alive.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted quite a few people. I have learnt many things I didn't expect to. It's better than just sit and read wikipedia. People are real and they all have different lives. It's a good experience to explore my messy Bangkok. It's fresh when I learn from visitors' eye. :-)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Got stuck in a rooftop before Hangover filmed about that. I can't decide it's amazing or lame. But an experience!
