I've been born and raised in Jakarta, the busy busy capital of Indonesia for 26 years and decided to travel since Jan of 2017 because I found no reason to stay in my hometown

Currently staying and living in Auroville, trying alternative ways of living, working on alternative education

I'm in the process of exploration and self discovery, to understand and accept myself as who I am and just being me

I'm gay and happy to host or be with people with any sexual orientation, we are all human being

P.S. Smile. It's a language that can be understand by all

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Differences is why I'm on Couchsurfing, there are 7 billions of people in this world and each one of us have different stories.
I want to travel to wherever I've never been, meet the locals all around the world, see what they see, feel what they feel.
In a lifetime, the number of encounters is limited and each one of them is precious.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I've had a near-death experience in 2015 that taught me a lot from just that single moment.
It happened when I traveled to Srau Beach in East Java, I was swallowed by the waves and taken to the middle of the ocean for nearly 2 hours. I survived, thanks to the kindness of the local who put their life at stake to rescue someone they don't know.
It changed me almost fundamentally. It restored my faith in humanity.
Instead of traumatized by the event, my love for the ocean has grown bigger. I've learned how to freediving in the middle of the ocean, freediving with sharks and Manta Rays.
It changed my perspective about life, I used to live for the future but now I live to live in the moment.
