About Me

Hi there! I am from the warm and sunny Manila, Philippines! I teach Computer Science subjects at the local university. I’ve been a bit of traveler, having visited 11 countries so far since I had the chance to go abroad last 2009. I am a typical Filipino, very sociable, family-oriented, pet lover, music lover, conscientious, religious but open-minded. I believe in the inherent goodness of people, and it reflects in the way I relate with people I meet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would love to meet people who loves to share their own space in the world. Although I am just new here, I look forward to having meaningful conversations to people who would be curious about my stories as well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Does finishing a PhD degree count? Other than my amazing academic achievements, I am really just a regular human being, sharing the same sentiments and aspiration as any other human being. :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I have some not necessarily useful world trivia in my head that just comes out in conversations, I have a fairly rich set of vocabulary, quite talkative about practically anything I get to read or watch from whatever source. I am a humorous person, easy to hang out with, and quite curious about many things.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I could be quite generous with my hosts, making sure to leave a small meaningful memento for a visit. I don’t want to be a burden when I visit, so please let me share the household chores, and allow me to treat you out for meal or drink to express my gratitude.
