CURRENT MISSION to weave words for the intangibles of traveling ABOUT ME Ariane. Twenty-something. Filipino expat to New Zealand. Now lving in a beachside shack somewhere in Australia. Registered Nurse. Writer. Photographer. Traveler. Blogger since 2004. ~*~ In a world where everybody claims to be a photographer, I grow eyes in my heart. It sees secrets in blurs and stories in rough edges. It recognizes worlds within worldsâ wonderlands that even the fullest frame or the largest lens cannot catch. I travel to gather stories and am not even halfway there. But Here, is a stopover, where I empty my heart so it can take more. PHILOSOPHY style, grace, rocknroll

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I host, meet people up for coffee, show people around my city, join CS-based communities, give insider tips to CSers visiting my city. Hopefully, I could surf in one of my future travels and/or find people of like minds. :) COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Was neck-deep with work and can't travel so I decided to open my doors to a traveler. He came from halfway across the world and had loads of stories to share. The travel bug was satiated right in the comforts of my home. win-win situation <3
