Hi! Filipino guy here based in Bangkok since 2019.

Outside of busy corporate life, I try to see the world as much as I can. I often travel solo, and the road less traveled always captivates me.

When I’m not traveling, I spend my weekends walking around Bangkok, going around every nook and cranny of the city, or simply stay at home or in a café and read, read, read.

I love good conversations over drinks or food or a good walk – be they about cultures, languages, books, adventures, society, history, politics, and more.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Looking forward to meet more people along the way, or host in Bangkok (when I got chance), or simply listen to your stories!

Algo increíble que he hecho

I send and collect postcards for more than 10 years now, I received more than a thousand of them from 100+ countries.

I collect The Little Prince in every possible language (already have translation in 50+ languages!)

I’ve visited all ASEAN countries (at least twice each country), 52 of Thailand’s 77 provinces, all 17 regions of the Philippines (~50 of 81 provinces).

I recently like doing train journeys. I once went from San Marino to Liechtenstein in a day, by bus and trains through Italy and Switzerland. I also went from my home in Bangkok to Singapore all by train :)

I like to hike mountains and viewpoints – climbed the highest mountain in the Philippines.

I travel solo in places I’ve never been before during my birthday month.
