About Me

I'm just a person who's passionate about traveling while writing on the go. So far, I've written my first book and will be engaging with my second one.

Normally, I just save up enough money to travel long-distance at a long period, hopefully one day travelling would be how I make a living of.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

On an economical level, I don't expect to splash a lot on accommodation with fancy facilities and wasteful expenses. I rather be spending that much money to experience more of where I'll be at.

On a personal level and as a lover of travel, I absolutely love gathering with friends made on-the-spot, wheter it's the host or fellow travelers.

It's always memorable to share moments with new people from different worlds.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It was during September 2017 as I bought a ham & cheese sandwich, a small box of pitted ovlies, a block of Leicester cheese, and a small & cheap bottle of white wine (I believe it was Sauvignon Blanc) and sat on the rise dividing Venice's island land and its' sea.

The sun had been setting beautifully as I sat there eating my simple dinner when two girls came over from behind, we shook hands and introduced ourselves. It only took a few complimentaries about the scenery unfolding (or should I say, "setting on") in front of us and some common grounds living in England to jump-start a 2-hour conversation.

Halfway through, we somehow reached to a paradigm of the conversation and dwell deep in our thoughts while we let our heart spoke. There weren't any intricate lines or references, just how we felt and how we met together.

The last time I saw the girls was when they had their backs turned against me and finally disappearing after passing one of the neon signs stuck onto the side of a restaurant.

That moment was probably when I've fallen in love with the way I traveled and I how amazing the setting of the sun unveiled it's fleeting shine.

Teach, Learn, Share

I personally manage a travel group as well as join communities of photographers & travelers (or both mixed together).

I don't offer much, what I can share are my stories and the generosity from one to another.
