CURRENT MISSION To go around the world embrace freedom soaring high like an eagle:) ABOUT ME I am a professional student. I have been in school for 20 years. I am now learning french as my outlet after work. I like to explore places, find adventure, read maps and clues. I started solo travelling recently. I appreciate countryside and places that's far away from modernity. I also like arts and history. I have passion for cooking have a taste of foreign cuisine. I also like to teach. I am a very idealistic person, one who does not want to leave academe and has always this eagerness to learn new things. I grew up in the southern rural part of my country named Davao. I was born and raised in a farm. I have a lot of things to share and stories to tell and I would also want to learn new insights from other people living afar. PHILOSOPHY The world is such a wonderful place to live. What are you waiting for? Go explore and make good memories.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I could give travel advice about the places I have been to. If you want to visit my place, I could find time to accommodate you and give you tips about living and exploring my country. Right now I cannot host since I am being hosted and is temporarily relocated in the beautiful southern France region. If you are here, I can meet you for a coffee or if I am available will show you some places I know.

One Amazing Thing I've Done
I quitted my job, left my comfort zone, jumped to the unknown, survived my daily basis out of kindness from strangers on the road... and I am still alive! ...plus I fell inloved ;)

What I Can Share With Hosts
I have done my first CS experience and it was a very memorable one, making friendships that you know will last. I want to pay forward the kindness I received. I will show you around the place where I am or give anything I can. It will be my pleasure. I cannot offer any couch at the moment but anyone is welcome to visit the house where I am hosted. It is a private studio in a modern eco villa facing and overlooking the glory of Mediterranean. I can invite you for a lunch and a walking tour in the little medieval village where I am located.
