ABOUT ME

From 2013 to this January, I was at Sweden,Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Barcelona, The Philippines, back to Sweden again, London,Paris,Edinburgh,Boston and New York.
I technically flew one lab around world. I know. It was AMAZING :D I met so many nice people with awesome vibe.
Couchsurfers were everywhere. I had great time with them.
I love to meet travelers sharing our stories and cultures !

PHILOSOPHY

At the start of the new millennium the Dalai Lama issued eighteen rules for living.

1. Take into account that great love and great achievements involve great risk.
2. When you lose, don't lose the lesson.
3. Follow the three Rs: 1. Respect for self 2. Respect for others 3. Responsibility for all your actions.
4. Remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck.
5. Learn the rules so you know how to break them properly.
6. Don't let a little dispute injure a great friendship.
7. When you realize you've made a mistake, take immediate steps to correct it.
8. Spend some time alone every day.
9. Open your arms to change, but don't let go of your values.
10. Remember that silence is sometimes the best answer.
11. Live a good, honourable life. Then when you get older and think back, you'll be able to enjoy it a second time.
12. A loving atmosphere in your home is the foundation for your life.
13. In disagreements with loved ones, deal only with the current situation. Don't bring up the past.
14. Share your knowledge. It's a way to achieve immortality.
15. Be gentle with the earth.
16. Once a year, go someplace you've never been before.
17. Remember that the best relationship is one in which your love for each other exceeds your need for each other.
18. Judge your success by what you had to give up in order to get it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I was working at the Philippines through AIESEC which is the biggest international student organization in the world. Lots of AIESECers there were also CSers. Naturally I participated tons of couch surfing events with lots of CSers

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I participated lots of event with CSers. There were language exchange biweekly events, parties every weekends, Frisbee events once in a month. We went to island together. With tropical atmosphere, good people and amusing vibe that time was totally Awesome.
Also last Christmas, I went to the Chirstmas orphan party at London.
And I was hosted by 3 Couchsurfers in NewYork and Boston. they are all nice and friendly :)
When I was at New York, I was hanging around CSs for open comedy, Super Bowl, gig hopping and looking around Brooklyn
Seriously.. everyone that I've ever met through couch surfing were Awesome

Interests

I LOVE TRAVEL ! I know everyone loves traveling. This year I will be traveling literally one lab around world. I would love to choose hostel and Couch surfing to meet new people rather than hotel only carrying just one small suit case !

I love eating food for sure ! haha I am kinda clumsy to cook. but very good at eating food as if I haven't eaten more delicious food than that.

To be honest I get bored of something very easily. Recently I was thinking if I have some interests for a long time and realized I don't have any besides two things that I mentioned before. So now I can talk about things that I like now. Although It will be changed so soon :)

Sounds nerdy but now I am interested in international economics haha :)
I like Avicii , Zedd, Alesso. I love dancing
ah ! one more thing
I can dance without music !!!!!!
