ABOUT ME

I'm a media professional who has spent the last eight years doing online journalism, social media marketing, and documentary video production for one of the Philippines' top TV networks. Three of my favorite things to do: travel, eat, and bike. I seek out authentic and experiential travel. When on the road, I always seek out that location's unique food, culture, and nature. I also believe biking is one of the best ways to experience a place. I'm also a third-culture kid, having grown up in the US but spent my teenage years and adult life in the Philippines.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Manila and the Philippines are not a usual destination for travellers from other countries, so it really helps to have a local show you why it's more fun in our country!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm new to CS, though I'm not new to travelling or hosting! I use Airbnb most of the time to rent out my apartment in Manila to travellers. When hosting travellers in my home, I often like to meet them for dinner and coffee to get to know them. You can see my listing and reviews here: https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/1521087
