About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Couchsurf in all continents!

ABOUT ME

My handle says ThirdGearLove because I love driving around Manila, and traffic is so bad you are usually stuck in third gear.I am in my fifth year of law school. I study at night because during the day, I work for a major media company, writing for the sports section. I also moonlight doing PR for a congressman in Manila. I like chocolate and cheese. I am currently trying to rid myself of religion, yet I'm still wearing my necklace with a cross pendant.I practice propriety and politeness by default.

PHILOSOPHY

You are your destiny.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I do love Manila. And if there's something I want the couchsurfers to realize, that is Manila is not just home to the best people but more importantly, the best experiences as well. I want my CS experience to help make other people realize how much they can transform the lives of the people they will meet when they visit.
