After spending half a decade in a university to accomplish a bachelor’s degree, and a couple of years of professional practice, I guess I just figured out that I could be more than an architect. I could be more than an overworked corporate slave or an overtaxed middle-class laborer. I worked for various positions across the architecture field in search for fulfillment and happiness but to no avail. Thus, I left my job and started drifting. Now, I’m a boss of my two feet.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

3D2N trips barely gave me the chance to be immersed into people’s lives and cultures. I used to squeeze in all the possible tourist “must do” activities and “must see” destinations into one itinerary. I used to cram every hour and spend every centavo to get a taste of everything.

I no longer want to be a tourist. I want to do couchsurfing and be a legit traveler.

Intereses

Not anymore afraid of the unknown, I am now looking forward to be lost again. Waking up to a strange place has become an addiction. Spending moments with strange people has become a satisfaction. Seeing the creations of the Ultimate Architect has become beyond expectation.

Leaving my profession and the conventional life in Manila to pursue traveling. Isn't it amazing?

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

Being an architect, I have very creative mind and hands. I am also very domesticated. If you are interested to adopt me for a while, taste my traditional Filipino dishes, and help me experience your life and culture, please shoot an email to ian.dungganon@yahoo.com
