Hi I am Rafid!

I am now working as a full-time Junior Conservation Researcher. I work with fish, and the ocean. Although I spend most days at field, I am keen to make a meaningful friendship with people. Right now I am a Graduate Student at UC Santa Cruz, I will be living around Monterey bay area, atleast until 2021!

PHILOSOPHY

"Become friends with people who aren't your age. Hangout with people whose first language isn't the same as yours. Get to know someone who doesn't come from your social class. This is how you can see the world. This is how you grow."

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

To lace a series of friendships, hopefully to be inspired by every story from every individual I meet in this platform, with a promise to visit each other again in every part of the world

兴趣

I love natures and wildlife, I've been admiring the ocean since I was little, and now I destined to live side by side with them. Diving is my first love, and hiking and many other adventurous activities. Come with me!

音乐、电影和书籍

Music depends on my mood, I don't have specific taste since it will depends on the trends, but I can say I listen to alternative and instrumental music more often.

I am 23 years old guy still watching cartoons. Like seriously, I will never grow old to leave this behaviour.

I love books. I am a Novelist since i was in high school. Now I am developing my blog to tell about short stories and my travel experience.
