Currently in my final year of medical school. Going to be entering internship at hospital by 2015.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm interested in travelling; not only to see new places, but also to be immersed in local cultures. Looking forward to meet new friends.

Why couchsurfing? I'm hoping to find people who would offer help and directions during my travel, as I would do too to people who contact me. A simple, give-and-take principle.

Interests

Love reading, drawing, and occasionally, writing and posting stuffs at tumblr. I have pets, 1 dog and 1 cat, back home at Jakarta (sadly none at my apartment, currently).

Music, Movies, and Books

Music:
I mostly listen to Ne-Yo, Jamie Cullum, John Mayer, and Final Fantasy (yep, the game by Square Enix) soundtracks. Also enjoy listening to Sara Bareilles, Yiruma, and almost any soundtracks from Disney and Studio Ghibli animations (esp. the works of Joe Hisaishi). As to local artists, I listen to Adhitia Sofyan and White Shoes and the Couples Company.

A fan of Super Junior, Big Bang, and SHINee too, haha.

Movies:
Would watch anything that sounds appealing to me. Mostly rom-coms and animations. I grew up watching Disney, so Disney naturally influences my choice sometimes. Love Studio Ghibli works, esp. Spirited Away and Howl's Moving Castle.

Books:
I'm basically an avid reader-I read everything, anything. A huge fan of the Lord of the Rings trilogy and all related books. Currently interested in Haruki Murakami's works. Have always been enjoying science fictions and fantasy books, e.g. Garth Nix's Keys to the Kingdom, Eoin Colfer's Artemis Fowl series, and yes, the Harry Potter series. As for Indonesian authors, I'm reading the works of Andrei Aksana, Clara Ng, Ayu Utami, and Djenar Maesa Ayu.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm willing to teach Indonesian, English, local culture, and all sorts of other skills that I have.

Looking forward to learn about your culture and language.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Currently, I'm not in position where I can easily provide lodging (unless under some conditions. Contact personally for more info). However, feel free to contact me if you need a sort of guide to travel around.

Countries I’ve Visited
