About Me

CURRENT MISS
To empower vulnerable and socially disadvantageous groups to hold their governments accountable and to expose crime committed by their own governments.

ABOUT ME

I am a simple individual, guided by my own wisdom and conscience, striving to cultivate harmony within my community and, ultimately, across the globe. My approach to peace-building is rooted in non-violence, as I endeavor to assist those around me in pursuing this shared objective.

PHILOSOPHY

"The church and the temple reside within my heart, and kindness is my philosophy." - Dalai Lama.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I joined Couchsurfing on a friend's recommendation.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This is my first time being part of this community. Yet, the concept feels familiar to me; I have hosted numerous people even before officially joining Couchsurfing.

Interests

I am keen on connecting with kind-hearted individuals to exchange knowledge and experiences related to cultural diversity and fostering peaceful communities. My goal is to be part of an intellectual network that contributes to creating a better world.

Music, Movies, and Books

Intellectual movies, and books would be my favorite taste of life...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have had many remarkable experiences throughout my life. One particularly profound experience was my time in Darfur. Working in an armed conflict area and assisting internally displaced persons to access basic needs was truly the most impactful experience I've ever had.

Teach, Learn, Share

I completely agree that Couchsurfing is about more than just sleeping arrangements and partying. Beyond these aspects, it offers us ample opportunities to learn from and share our travel experiences and insights about the diverse communities we encounter.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Dear guests: I'm currently based in Japan. I won't be able to host anyone until I move back to Cambodia. If you found yourself in Kanagawa, Japan, and would like to meet up for a tea or coffee, please feel free to let me know.
