About Me

I am from the Philippines but have been living in Korea for 4 years now. I studied for my Master's here in Korea and am now working as a researcher. I am a licensed pharmacist in the Philippines and my current research field is on cancer. will soon be leaving Korea to take my PhD in another country.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel and I feel like one thing I've been missing on meeting local residents to know the place and the culture more, not just visit the tourist places.

I love the Harry Potter and LOTR series (both movie and books)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
