About Me

I'm a bachelor student who've lived in Japan for a year for my undergrad thesis research in Cancer, and as well as an exchange program, so I'm fluent in Japanese & English as well as Indonesian.

I was born disabled (I have 2 arms but with only one hand, only on the right one. The left one was only up to the elbow). But that doesn't stop me to be anything I want, and achieve great things in life. I never let my disability to limit me to be or to do anything. I've always believed that nobody's perfect. But with those imperfectness, we can complete each other, create strong bonds, and be a big family.

I love good talks (anything), good movies, adventures, and I'd love to make lots of friends from all over the world. Let's be friends!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been living with disability for about 21 years now, and whenever I travel somewhere, people always treat me well, so I've always wanted to do the same thing to other people, and I love making friends.
So I humbly wanna make friends and share things with you guys! ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

What I Can Share with Hosts

Friendly Hositality, as well as experience & adventure!

My house is close to these places :
1. Insect and reptile park! There is an insect museum, reptile zoo, and you can also interact with reptiles such as snakes and komodo!
2. Waterpark with pools & waterboom and a mini jetski
3. About 1.5 hour to the beach
4. About 2 hours to Borobudur Temple (by bus)

But we can only accept guests on holiday seasons only, when I'm at home (mostly I'm in Bandung for my college study in ITB). And since none of my family is good at English, so you'd need me at home (if you're a foreigner). So please feel free to talk about this with me
