About Me

Adventure for me is to travel to another place, live as the locals do and spend the least money possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I learned that a lot of Western travelers and even Asians go around Asia a lot but visit only countries that share borders. Not a lot of people think of putting the Philippines in their itinerary because it takes a plane to get here. Also, isn't it fun to make friends while traveling?

Music, Movies, and Books

My playlist is schizo. For movies, I prefer films that require an over-dinner discussion after watching. I love it when I see something that confuses, scares, jolts the wits out of me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1) Eating fried crickets in Cambodia. It took me a good 5 minutes of telling myself that I won't die from it. See more of my Vietnam/Cambodia trip here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRCqiCOLCu4

2) Jumping from a 15-20 ft waterfall! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tikMmbR-xSQ&feature=channel_video_title) After a few years, I jumped off from a 30-foot high cliff in Samal Island.
