📍Thailand 🔜 Vietnam

I’m a traveler and takes exploring places seriously. By serious, I meant fully immersing myself in one’s culture. I currently work in research with background in genomics 🧬 and virology 🧫. Recent projects are about pathogens!!!

Funny thing is, I finished marine science and began working with grassroots communities and lobbying sound policies, but things took a turn and found myself in deeper science. But well, who says we can’t all be “jill-of-all-trade”?

Anyway, I love being out in the world and connecting with people. Forget about nerding 😅 tho we can hangout all day in a library or a museum!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Connect with fellow travelers! And maybe some people having the time of their lives.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - I love listening to variety of tunes, but its always the country girl in me 🥹

Movies - A good storytelling is worth to watch 🎬

Books - Vonnegut, Hesse, Orwell, Gibran… reading is one of my pleasures, do not hesitate to suggest a good read! 📚

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Is it crazy to solo hike mountains of more than 1000 masl without maps and just instinct?

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe backpacking is one of the best ways to explore places. It’s not just that we see the beauty in the little things but also building a lifelong relationships with whomever we meet. It’s me trying to learn to embrace life and later pass on the good deeds when it’s my time to host.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Fun stories, Filipino food cooking and it’s not just all about adobo 😅

Love quality time and genuine intentions too!
