Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
I’m a huge fan of Hans Zimmer, particularly his compositions "No Time for Caution," "Cornfield Chase," and "Time." His music has an incredible ability to evoke deep emotions and set the tone for epic storytelling.

Movies:
I'm drawn to movies that challenge the mind and stir the soul. Some of my all-time favorites are:

Interstellar: A breathtaking journey through space and time that explores the depths of human emotion and scientific discovery.

Inception: A mind-bending thriller that delves into the complexities of dreams and reality.
The Dark Knight Trilogy: Particularly "Batman," where the character development and storytelling are top-notch, alongside Hans Zimmer’s remarkable score.

Books:
One of my favorite books is "Sapiens" by Yuval Noah Harari. This thought-provoking book offers a comprehensive look at the history of humankind, exploring how we have evolved and shaped the world we live in today. It's a must-read for anyone interested in history, anthropology, and the future of our species.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've done is solo backpacking through Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia. Traveling alone allowed me to step out of my comfort zone, navigate new environments independently, and connect deeply with the local cultures. Each adventure was filled with incredible experiences, from exploring bustling cities and serene landscapes to meeting fellow travelers and locals who enriched my journey. This trip not only broadened my perspective but also ignited my passion for exploring the world.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach:
I can teach you the basics of salsa and bachata dancing. These dances have brought a lot of joy into my life, and I love sharing that joy with others. I can also offer insights into the tech industry and share some coding tips from my experience as a software engineer at Microsoft.

Learn:
I'm always eager to learn about new cultures, languages, and local traditions. Whether it's a new dance style, a unique recipe, or an interesting historical fact about your area, I'm all ears. I'm also keen to learn any travel tips or hidden gems from your experiences.

Share:
I can share stories and tips from my solo backpacking adventures across Thailand, Vietnam, and Indonesia. I also love exploring cafes, so I can recommend some great coffee spots and share my experiences of cafe hopping.
