Overview
About Me
Updated "about me" July 2024
Firstly, thanks guys for reaching me out and allow me to introduce myself.
I'm one of the CSing members who been active on this platform since the beginning and always love to make new friends or being connected with everyone from all over the world. I treat everyone equally the same either local or foreigner. The color, language, look or even the culture are different indeed .. But in the end, we're all just the same human being.
Be respectful and caring for people always be my point of life, and I hope everyone do the same especially by accepting the differences between us.
FYI :
Please NOTE, I no longer to live in Jakarta. I currently live in Tangerang city due to my new job. It's pretty much like the same city, closer to the airport and less crowded.
It's just 15 - 20 mins from Jakarta, that's a reason I still go around Jakarta all the time to meet my friends especially from CSing too.
"Oh yah, Please direct read my home section to read more updated info about my availability if you guys have any plan to request to stay with me".
My favourite activities are so random.I like walking, sharing or talking about the life experience and culture exchange with new people.
I love visiting the nature often or just hangout with friends in the city. I ride motorbike very much but sometimes also use public transport in Jakarta since it is easy, cheaper and pretty good tho. When I host people, I may take them around with this style too. :)
I sometimes cook, especially for Indonesia cuisines. As far as I'm concerned, I think it's almost impossible when I didn't cook for people who stayed at my place. Hehe.
I've been always interested of sharing everything related to business ideas, nature and new culture. I work out at the gym sometime (that's why I'm skinny, lol), I learned Javanese tradisional massage (from Indonesia) with certificate as a life skill, and the best singer in the bathroom
---------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm originally from North Sumatra where a lot of people come there especially to Medan city and continue their trip to other destinations such as "Bukitlawang" (Jungle Trek and Wild Orangutans), "Lake Toba" (Amazing volcano lake & stunning view) or Tangkahan (Jungle area which often called as the hidden paradise of north sumatra), etc.
I went to those places above a lot of time either alone or with friends (included CSers). Until now, I still help CouchSurfing friends often to guide them exploring this my hometown remotely with several good tips. So if you need any information about Medan city around, feel free to text me. I know how to get Lake toba cheapest, jungle trek to bukitlawang, public transport around, and other things else.
You can read the references by many Couchsurfers on my profile that I've met or I hosted to know more about myself. And if you want to be connected to me through social media, I'm also on Instagram @irsanchen
Well that's all I guess and hopefully to see you. Have wonderful experience together ! Cheers
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Couchsurfing is the best way to be connected with new people from all over the world. Also the best way to build my relation such as a friendship, learn new culture, listen to life stories from foreign people directly and absolutely the most useful community that will always make my travel experience become easier or even much more interesting.
Interests
I believe that the interest could change due to our age.
Nature such as the beach, lake, jungle, and the other quiet places else. At the same time, I actually enjoy spending my time in cozy coffeeshop in the city as well.
The most interesting thing in life personally is mostly about the people connection and diversity in this world.
- culture
- traveling
- business
- religion
- nature
- lifestyle
- friendship
- halal food
- traditional massage
Music, Movies, and Books
My choices mostly go to the songs by Jessie J, Adelle, Ed Sheeran, Whitney Houston, ex 1D, Calum Scott.. everything about melancholic or depressing suicidal songs .
I'm not a book person tho and if I do, I prefer to read something light. Maybe psychology stuff and health books.
I kinda love watching fantasy movie, romantic, travel experience, culture, even the movie about animal
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Nothing much. I was born in poor family and didn't even dream to travel abroad or live independently like now.
However I'm blessed because I could see the world, travel abroad, have international good friends or new family, and speak english in autodidact way without having any proper english course when I was younger.
I helped people from CSing who dying alone in the hospital, changed the situation from stranger to brothers.
Teach, Learn, Share
I'm considered myself as an open minded person, I learn about any new thing from others with opened heart and mind.
I'd love to teach my guests as well about Indonesia culture, tips, stories or the other things that I know.
Absolutely sharing stories and experience each other as well.
What I Can Share with Hosts
A friendly personality, sweet, honest and good hearted Indonesian who also know how to respect our diversity
And absolutely the Culture exchange !
