CURRENT MISSION Surviving the pandemic, physically, financially, and mentally healthy. Training for 10k run in the winter. ABOUT ME An old soul who refuse to wake up early when not getting paid for it. An advocate of slow weekend mornings, but never want to sweat for breakfast! Aspired to be a jazz songstress since little but ended up finishing master's degree in business, and working for a pricing tech company now. No diva qualities, just an amateur who sings wholeheartedly. I know, cliché! I find my simple happiness in good books, good music (groovy bass line + 7th Chords + Rhodes Piano sound = Eargasm), and of course delicious food! Originally from Indonesia but have been living in Stockholm for almost 3 years, after finishing my master's degree in Finland. In total, I have been living in the Nordics for slightly more than 5 years. Still hating the dark winter! PHILOSOPHY The world is too big and life is too short. Keep exploring and learning.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing
(Before the pandemic) I solo traveled quite often, like once a month and mostly for work. Couchsurfing enables me to have the local experience within a short period of time. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I mostly met other couchsurfers on CS gathering or went hanging out with them in places I traveled to.

Meus Interesses
I am always keen to explore the local architecture, culture, local restaurants, and getting to know the people. If the place is well-known for its musics, for sure I will visit the traditional music or Jazz/RnB, Soul scenes.
