About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To make friendships worldwide and Live life to the fullest

ABOUT ME

Hello! I am so glad to have learned about Couchsurfing. My experience last four years has been great and I look forward to many others. I am an open-minded 23-year-old who would like to travel and learn about the country I am visiting. Besides traveling, I enjoy hiking in beautiful nature, trying out different kind of food, learning to dance, and good conversations over meals and wines.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to make the best out of my life by traveling at this point.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Past four years, my experience in Couchsurfing surpass my expectations. I really enjoy meeting people here and some of them became my best friends whom I talk regularly. I hope to make further friendships here.

Interests

I am enthusiastic about learning languages and getting to know "inside" of a country. When I say "inside", I mean how locals live and think. I wouldn't want to be just a tourist. Wherever I travel, I would like to study a local language and learn about their culture, lifestyle, and their views of the world.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like action / comedy / nostalgic movies and pop / jazz / Latin music. Plus I like reading about a country I am visiting.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1. Trekking all night from 11 pm to 5 am and reaching the top of Mt. Sinai to see the magnificent sunrise from the desert.

2. Embarking on the Trans-Siberian Railway and drinking with Russian people while singing and playing a guitar on a 3rd class dormitory carriage.

3. Exploring Petra for 15 hours and having a mint tea with Bedouins while being locked out in the ruins of the ancient city.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like languages and I think I can help people if they need help with languages I know. I am always willing to learn about different people's thoughts and the language of a country I am visiting.
