Overview
About Me
I am currently studying Architecture at University of Kent, in Canterbury, U.K. On a spontaneous whim, I decided to leave home and be on my own to fulfil my dreams of living and studying in London.
*Currently trying to fit travelling with being a full time student, and my part time job*
But the world awaits, and my adventure is just beginning.
CURRENT MISSION
A juggle between a fantasy and the reality.
Goal : Explore the world before it dies on us. (due to global warming)
"Life's a book, and one who does not travel only reads one chapter"
ABOUT ME
Hi there!
I'm half Filipino and half Swedish. I grew up in the Philippines, and am now living in London.
In my spare time, I like watching films, and series, and reading books. One day I dream of writing my own book.
I'm into sports, and right now I focus mainly on Fencing.
I am an adventurous girl who would like to see the world.
Unlike most Filipinos I am not good at singing, or boxing for that matter.
"I don't travel because I want to leave my home. I travel because I need to know why I'm staying."
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I recently discovered couch surfing from my father who opted that we try couchsurfing when we travel to China. I have couchsurfed in Xian and Beijing China.
I have also experienced being a host to people my father was hosting during my visit in Sweden. So far so good. I have also been to several couchsurfing events in Barcelona, Sweden and London and got to talk to travellers.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Update! The BEST AND MOST AMAZING thing I have done/seen was the Polar Lights that I got a glimpse of from our road trip in the North of Sweden.
"Summer after High School when we first met" (when I first discovered the gem that is Europe)
I guess in my few years of existence the most AMAZING thing I have done was backpacking across Europe summer 2014. We were able to be in three countries in less than an hour!
As it has always been a dream and goal of mine to see the world. I can't wait to explore the world.
Teach, Learn, Share
Teach: Well I have a background and lots of interesting topics on my country being a third world country and all.
Learn: Interested to learn about the culture and people in other places around the world
Share: Same as teaching I guess, but stories and dreams will do as well.
