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.
