CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Full time postgrad student, former engineer (an aspiring field engineer), traveler in disguise, great friend you can ask for, a family man.

i started to love traveling back then on 2010 when i made my first traveling (a long one) from Indonesia to Boston. since after then, traveling have always been my growing interest, as well as meeting new people, making new friends.

my friend may describe me as an adaptable person, have a good sense of humor, friendly, adventurous, independent, moody and sometimes lazy, and helpful. just meet me, and feel it yourself, and let's share the excitement of meeting new people together! :)

PHILOSOPHY

i see life as a sequences of never-ending challenges. enjoying every challenges you have or seeing every problems in your life as a challenge will definitely help you enjoying your life.

"ever tried. ever failed. no matter. try again. fail again. fail better." - Stanislas Wawrinka

Teach, Learn, Share

i am not sure i have something valuable to teach, but for me the main aspect of teaching, learning and sharing is interaction that's why i love to have an interaction with a lot of people because it's the most efficient way to have a reciprocal teaching, sharing, and learning experience.

What I Can Share with Hosts

i can share my not-so-significant travelling experience, i can cook (if possible) and i am more than happy to talk about my life or my current favourites (movie, book, sport). the point is: i can be your good and memorable guest! :)
