About Me

If you want to know me just send me a message, don't add me as a "friend" here without having sent me a message before. Please also send me the URL to your Facebook profile so I may know you better. Thank you.

Also if you want to stay with me, please read this: https://m.wikihow.com/Be-a-Great-Couchsurfer

Let me know that you have read it.

Also I probably will just answer no directly if you don't send a message where I can see that you have read my profile. More on that under the home-section.

Also if you can't even afford a hostel perhaps you shouldn't be travelling actually :)
CS isn't supposed to be a free alternative to a hostel.

⛪ I'm happy to be a Christian, belonging to the Catholic Church
🥗 I like to have a more vegan diet, but my diet is actually pescetarian (I eat fish 🐟🐠🐡 and seafood, other than that it's a vegetarian diet)
🇵🇭 The Philippines is my other homeland, not because of blood but heart ❤️

Also I'm vaccinated 💉 against covid-19 if that matters to you, with a traditional protein-based technology.

CURRENT MISSION

Get to know the forests like the back of my hand

ABOUT ME

Hmm... I always find it hard to define myself.
But I hope that I am a humble person, at least I am trying to.. I believe in God and call myself a Christian who belongs to the Roman rite of Catholic Church, I love Jesus Christ and my country and I think there is so much to discover even in the area that is close to me. Want to know the forests around me like the back of my hand :-)
I really like nature and forests.
I'm involved in Scouts of Europe (FSE-UIGSE) so I'm into hiking and camping. It's a Catholic Scouting organisation.

One of the reasons I'm here is because I really like the diversity of cultures we have on this planet. What fun would it be to go somewhere if it was just all the same?
I would call myself a nationalist and a patriot.

Will fill this out more I guess.
Just ask!

Hugs and love to y'all

PHILOSOPHY

"Freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose." - Kris Kristofferson (note: a CS:er corrected me on this and I read the writer's interview about this line where he also mentions "The two-edged sword that freedom is." - very true words)

"With great power comes great responsibility" - Spider-Man

"Äsch! Det spelar väl ingen roll hur stark man är! Det viktigaste är att man är snäll!" - Bamse nr 8/1980

"Finns det svenskt kaffe på hotellet?" - Fru Storch, Sällskapsresan
