My name is Jake. Since I decided to move to Bali, I got so many interesting experiences in life. I learn many things, independence, social, explore skills, learn culture and tradition, and enjoy stunning places Bali has. I am currently working in the hospitality industry. Being a trainer teaches me a lot about dealing and connecting with a lot of people and their uniqueness. There are great and unique characteristics surround me. Having said that, I would like to meet a lot of people, make friends, learn about others' cultures and traditions all over the world. So please, never hesitate to have a chat with me talking about anything, life, movie, song, hobby, experiences, and so on. I would love to accompany you going and travelling around and enjoying the beauty of Indonesia and teaching Bahasa Indonesia too. My passion is that I could go around the world and meet a lot of friends! so, let's make friends, good people!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Part of my biggest dream is to have chances to travel around the world as well as learn new experiences such as cultures, languages and traditions, make a lot of good friends, help and share with others using my skills and knowledge. This refers to what Martin Yan said, "People who don't travel cannot have a global view, all they see is what's in front of them. Those people cannot accept new things because all they know is where they live."
