Hey everyone!

The name's Norman. You can call me Norms!

I'm very introverted... but at the right moment and time, I can get pretty crazy and fun!

If you need any help or advice, feel free to ask me, and I'll try to be of help as much as I can!

Anyone looking for friends? Don't be afraid to approach me! I don't bite, but I might bite your food! Haha!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The first time I heard of Couchsurfing was in Boracay, November 2014. I got interested with the prospect of having people just crash in our house, or maybe even me crashing theirs! Plus the fact that you can save up so much is a plus for me.

As I said, I love meeting new friends. I believe this is another way we can meet up and just enjoy the moment! Tanay is not that famous as a tourist spot, so maybe this is just a way to allow visitors a chance to have some place to stay.

Interests

I'm in love with the Finance industry... and yeah, it might be a bit boring to you guys, but for me, and a handful of people, finance is awesome! As a matter of fact, I aspire to become a professor on the industry to bring in more people to get interested!
Aspiring CFA here.

I also play video games in my 3DS and iPad. Love them to bits. Let's play for a while if things get boring!

Also, and I think it's already a given, I'm just a beginner traveler, and it is already an interest! Haha! Give me tips, please!

Music, Movies, and Books

Favorite music? Fan of Maroon 5 here. Besides that, I enjoy simple jazz, or any songs from a musical I love, or songs from video games I played.

Movies? More of the comedy, please! No horror! Can't stand it! But if you need someone to watch scary movies... Well, I can volunteer, reluctantly.

Books? Not really into a specific kind of book. I pick up, I love it, I read it! That's all!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

For me, jumping off a cliff to dive in to the ocean is amazing. It's only at 10 meters though, which might not be as extreme to some. But for me, it was heart wrenching. Love it!

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a natural tutor, at least in Math, Finance. I can tutor you, if you want. Haha! I can also teach you the ways around Tanay and Manila, if you need it.

I want to learn from you, too! Anything that you are willing to share. No story is too boring!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer my hand if you need it. I love helping out people, of course not to the point that I feel abused. It's just an innate nature in me to help.

I can also try pitching in if you plan to include me in your meals. But usually I try not to be too much of a burden and eat out.

That's all, but maybe things will run it's course, and I may be able to help out more. Hopefully. :-)
