Hi, I’m Rizal from Jakarta.

I really enjoy meeting people from different backgrounds and having genuine conversations. For me, it’s not just about traveling to new places, but about understanding how other people live, think, and experience the world. I love sharing stories, exchanging travel tips, exploring local spots, and of course enjoying good food together.

Outside of hosting and traveling, I’ve been working in finance, accounting, and tax for more than ten years. I’ve experienced both startup environments and multinational companies, which taught me how to adapt quickly and work with all kinds of people. It’s quite different from traveling, but in a way, both are about understanding people and perspectives.

If you’re visiting Jakarta, I’d be happy to show you around, recommend places that locals actually go to, or simply have a relaxed coffee and talk about your journey. I always believe every meeting brings a new story and a new insight.

Looking forward to connecting and sharing experiences.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I joined Couchsurfing because I genuinely enjoy meeting new people and having meaningful conversations. For me, travel is not just about visiting new places. It is about perspective. I love hearing how others see the world, learning about their cultures, and listening to the stories and experiences that shape them.

Living in Jakarta, I am happy to share what I know about the city. Not only the popular spots, but also the hidden gems, local food, and everyday places that make Jakarta unique. The city can feel intense at first, but once you understand its rhythm, there is a lot to appreciate.

I believe every meeting brings new insight. Sometimes it is about culture, sometimes about life, and sometimes it is simply sharing a good laugh. Whatever it is, it always leaves a memory, and that is what I value most.
