Check: fosterthedifferences.com - a blog by me, where you would get to see through my mind. ABOUT ME - An Introvert (and at times pseudo-extrovert) guy, with a deep passion for people and society (in terms of making better life for people around me, but not yet to the wider society - I find myself lacking the confidence for anything bigger than my surrounding - and, hence, the blog). - I tend to look at the world in positive way, most of the time, yet still feel uneasy every time I encounter a less than pleasant condition, e.g. I would try to find a solution to an issue but I still have the itch to "fix" the whole chain that caused the issue (to an extent that I might have insulted some). - Well, I also try to avoid debating over unimportant, impractical, things, e.g. let's say that some people say their religions (and Gods) are better/truer than others, but because I found it of no importance to my life, let's just live and let live. (Oh, I would still ask some simple practical logical questions just to gain more knowledge, or just to nudge the other person)

Perché sono su Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING Based on information I got from hangout friends who are surfers, I signed up to see events nearby. Initially I cannot host, but I've just moved to an apartment and I can host now. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Once surfed in Paris. Mostly only hanging out with the surfers/hosts in Jakarta. Most time I went abroad, I live at my friends'. But, hey, I don't have friends all around the world (yet) :D
Musica, film e libri
Books: - The Power of Habit, - Blink, - The Tipping Point, - Steal Like An Artist, - Harvard Business Review (many of it) Music: - Mostly songs with great vocal, sometimes into beat. (some names: Paloma Faith, Whitney, Sia, Ed Sheeran, Sam Smith, Adele, Lady Gaga, etc.) Movies: - Maleficent, - The Blind Side, - The Proposal, - Smallfoot, etc.
Una cosa straordinaria che ho fatto
I have no one exceptionally amazing thing (that I can think of), but some would be: - Travelled solo twice to Europe and many times in Asia — making some friends on the road in each trip - Looking into Bromo crates after walking the distance - Laying on the sand on the beach, experiencing dark blue sky glittered by some sparkling stars, - Blogging in my non-native language (it's hard for me!)
Insegna, Impara, Condividi
Share: - Ears to listen to your stories - Language (Indonesian, a bit of Chinese and one of its dialect - Hokkian) - HR thingy - Tips on Indonesia (and other countries) I've been to Learn: - People and their behaviours - How to relax a bit
Cosa posso offrire agli host
People from all walk all life have something they can share, even the old lady who talks a lot can teach us if we listen. Personally, I am good at probing and would be interested in discussing new things, taking your perspectives and blending it with mine. Well, I could share how Indonesian lives (from the way we speak to the way we act); how an architecture student could end up being in Human Resources (it has a decade of history). OK, I'll come up with more of this!
I miei interessi
Reading others' opinion on life, especially the ones related to how to be better person, and not how to be the winning person.
