Standing up against my boundaries (hierarchy, gender norms, financial boundaries) defines who I am today. I steered my own ship navigating different stances and expectations, which explains why I usually take the unconventional choice. Can flood you with common science and always up for trying new sports/dishes. I also cook dishes from different countries as a means of discovering new cultures when I cannot afford to travel.

I help people whenever I can as a means of giving back for all the help I've received along the way. Also an aspiring social entrepreneur for now because I want to uplift others' life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm curious about how people explain things they have seen, and what they have experienced. At some point, I felt as if we have all been through the same things, which allows us to sympathize with one another. I also fall in love with meeting people from all over the globe for the stories that make me feel humbled and inspired at the same time.

Quote that reads me:
The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes 'Awww!
