About Me
CURRENT MISSION
**I know and I understand that there might be some last-minute changes to your trip, and that you possibly can't come or have to change your itinerary; BUT please once you confirmed, just send a message to your prospective host about the change of plans (not to keep them hanging) -- It's just proper and polite!**

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
For as long as you need a couch or a place to stay, you're always welcome in my place. I'd love to hear your stories, amazing moments and the priceless memories of your travels!
To hang-out with friends, and to enjoy company of fellow CS'ers across the globe!
Meet new people, share new experiences, new culture and make new and amazing memories!!
I once planned my first trip to Eu. I was researching on topics online on how to travel with a limited budget and came across this platform. Hesitant at first, but eventually I start hosting and then eventually getting hosted back in return!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
The best!!!!! I hosted quite a few.. Strangers at first, but depart as friends :D Surfed through a number of hosts in Europe. I visited and met already twice, most of the people that I have hosted/met in Sharjah during my 2015 EU trip
Interests
surfing the 'net, swimming, sight-seeing, strolling, and sports :D
busy-doing nothing xoxo. lately a bit preoccupied with work and online games
Music, Movies, and Books
Alternative and pop music.. But not much into it, for as long as pleasant to the ears.. Sci-fi books mostly.. Watched some movies online and TV series -- English mostly (Korean and Chinese as well, where i read for the translation subtitles :D, English)
Not much of an avid reader, nor someone who has frequently put headphones on to listen for music, but I enjoyed having it -- whenever I can, in my free-time
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
There's actually a lot!!
Knowing that I helped somebody, in their fullest potential to recover (in relation to my profession) --
People who smile in times of difficult situations --
Seeing the beauty of life, basking with the sun and enjoying the simple pleasures of living --
Seeing people with special needs who didn't care or think about it as a restriction --
CS environment!! -- exchanging ideas, sharing stories, being with friends who's coming from different walks of life - not minding about something in specific, but to enjoy with each others company --
Living in a day-to-day basis, not to worry too much about the future, and enjoying the best of things life has to offer!! :D
Teach, Learn, Share
basic language training for Tagalog, English or simple arabic; first-aid skills as I'm working as an EMT but a nurse by profession; Filipino culture!
-- that you don't need moooooore money for you to start travelling!!..
What I Can Share with Hosts
Ideas and insights about NYC, the UAE or Philippines. At times, can possibly assist you with visiting around the city if free.
