About Me

Avid reader, love both fictions and non-fictions. Currently learning to have a better relationship with myself especially by transforming my self-talk. Learning to write poetry and other wordy-thingy. Podcast listener. Need both deep and shallow conversations. I walk a lot. Love to hangout with small but intimate group. Non religious but quite spiritual. I’m self-employed, getting money by helping creative people connecting with clients around the globe, selling my own artworks, and copywriting.

Currently in Bandung.

I believe straight-forwardness is also kindness. I would try my best to only join an event or hangout where I can and want to. I don’t care about your job, age, sexual orientation or even references on Couchsurfing. The kindest and coolest persons I’ve ever met in my life were from various backgrounds.

Talk in English and Indonesian. Learning French and Esperanto.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Starting new and healthier relationships to myself. It’s a long story, but long story short, 2018 to 2020 changed the way I see my life, my relationships (with me, God, and people).

Teach, Learn, Share

Currently learning to appreciate life either what I have, what happens around me, and the people I meet here. For example giving my gratitude to the mindful, cool, deep thinker people that I’ve met through Couchsurfing.

Also learning to surf. Still sucks, but I love it.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I rent a house, just tell me in advance since the room isn’t always available. In Bali I only rent a room tho’.
