About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world

ABOUT ME

I just love to travel. I grew up in Philippines but I love to travel. I did Habitat for Humanity in Poland and was one of the best vacation that I've ever had. I was even able to stop by in Italy for a week. How awesome was that? I'm currently living in Panajachel Guatemala working for a great organization. i just don't travel I try to do something productive too. But I'm a very easy going person and cool to hang out with. I guess some people say (esp. my friend Stacy) I always smile and laugh. You just have to see that for yourself. I just learned to live life to the fullest, which includes meeting people from around the world at their respected countries.

PHILOSOPHY

Do what you can with your life, and ignore whatever that bugs you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Experience different cultures. I felt in high school that I don't need to learn geography or even history. But I learned, as I grew up and opened my mind to the world, that these types of subjects in high school is what you really need in life.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One of the most rewarding experiences that I've ever done. You won't regret it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I climbed a rock. I descended on a mountain. I flew in the air. I helped build a house. Yet, there's still so much to see out there.

Teach, Learn, Share

I figured out that there's so much to learn about everyone in this very short lifetime. History can go on for hundred of years and each individual only has about 7 or 8 decades to enjoy it. So travel the world and grasp the magnitude of the world's history.
