ABOUT ME

Almost one year ago I left my country because tired to struggle with working working working for paying for useless things...I just wanted a simple life where I don't need any material things and enjoy everyday life. So I moved to Asia volunteering with small NGOs, I was lucky that when running out of money I found a job in Thailand.

PHILOSOPHY

No need perfection to be happy
respect of others' own opinions and way of life. No prejudice at all!
in our life we may have only a chance (depending on the religion may be more)anyway, you have to enjoy it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I have a place to host people I'm happy to share my house with CSs. When I don't I like to hang out with CSs friends.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I joined CS one year ago, when I was in Jakarta and didn't have many friends. So I started to host and that was a window to the world. Now that I move to Thailand, it amazing that I met so many interested people through CSs in Chiang Mai and now most my friends are CSs.
