Hey, I’m Rai 👋

My friends usually say I’m an easygoing and open-minded guy who’s always down for a chat and somehow can blend in anywhere. I really enjoy trying new things, whether it’s traveling to new places, doing sports, tasting different kinds of food, or even working on random creative projects. They also call me the “let’s go” type because I’m always up for spontaneous plans and new adventures. People who know me well describe me as reliable, supportive, and (hopefully) fun to be around. I like to keep things light, make people laugh, and simply enjoy the moment. On the fun side, my friends like to joke that I can’t live without my AirPods 🎧 and that I’m always neat and smelling fresh — their words, not mine 😅. For me, Couchsurfing isn’t just about finding a place to crash, but more about connection, having good conversations, and creating meaningful memories with people from different corners of the world.

Thanks GPT to make what all my friend says look shorter

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I once read that scientists say when someone is close to death, strong memories or important moments from their life appear. That made me want to fill my life with many meaningful memories with people and through traveling, so that I can live longer and fully before death comes.

Music, Movies, and Books

I’m a huge music lover! I listen to everything — from Cigarettes After Sex, RnB, pop, rock, to jazz, whether it’s Indonesian or English songs. As for movies, I’m all about thrillers. I highly recommend the Maze Runner trilogy (1–3) or the Netflix series Behind Her Eyes.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I cannot remember tbh 🥲

Teach, Learn, Share

I traveling in. Since I was 14, I’ve often traveled alone or with my friends because my parents always let me find my own way. I enjoy listening to other people’s stories and responding to them, as I can learn lessons and gain experiences from their journeys. I can teach you how to cook Indonesian dishes — I love cooking, and my dad even says my fried rice is really delicious!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I hope I can be interesting for you (I really hope so)! I can join you to go out or sport, cook a meal for you, or maybe bring you some of my favorite chocolates from my country — I always carry them in my bag wherever I go.
