I live in the town of Paoay, Ilocos Norte just right at the back of San Agustin Church - one of the 4 Baroque Churches of the Philippines inscribed in the UNESCO World Heritage List.

My ultimate goal is to visit every UNESCO World Heritage Site - basically see the world and tell them about my country Philippines!

I worked in the tourism industry and the local governement before, have had projects related to tourism management and planning, as well as cultural field works around the Philippines. I regularly give talks on the field - as well as with the phenomenon of traveling - to students having their field trips in Ilocos as well as during special occasions in universities.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Because hospitality is a strong Filipino trait, and I believe in the power and joy of sharing experiences among travellers!

Algo increíble que he hecho

Backpacked around India all by myself and met fantastic people!

It was a dream come true to explore what this cultural and historical powerhouse nation had to offer.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I cook good Filipino food! In my recent trip to El Nido, in the lodge I stayed at I was teased by the owner to prepare a Filipino dinner. I cooked for 7 people - 3 italians (who have their own hotels!), 3 Germans (one had a BnB in South Africa), and 1 French. They said that it was the best Filipino food they had :)

I'm a story teller - I have to be one in my speaking engagements.

I'd love to hear everyone's travel stories too!
