Hi! I’m Rina — a certified kid magnet.

For some reason, little kids (especially around 3 years old) always stick to me like glue. Sometimes they even choose to stay with me instead of their own moms. Don’t worry though… this superpower only works on children 😄

I enjoy simple and fun things in life. Whenever I have a meeting with my friends, I’m always the one bringing jelly. Why jelly? Because it’s refreshing, it lightens the mood, and honestly, no one else ever thinks of bringing it — so I proudly take that role.

I usually walk to work. In Indonesia, walking everywhere can feel a bit unusual, but I’m a loyal public transportation warrior. Free exercise, fresh air, and extra time to think — why not?

From time to time, I like learning new things such as drawing, writing, and read-aloud activities. I take things slowly but consistently, because growth doesn’t have to be rushed.

My circle of friends has become smaller over time — many have moved for work, and one by one they’ve gotten married. Hopefully, one day it will be my turn too… *fingers crossed* 😄

I’m here to build long-term friendships, have relaxed but meaningful conversations, and share stories from everyday life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m here to meet kind-hearted people, experience cultures in a real way, and build genuine connections.
Travel for me is about stories, laughter, shared meals… and maybe sharing jelly too

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
