Hi there! I'm Shelly. Traveling teaches me 2 main things:

1.) Keeping memories is better than collecting things
2.) Being away makes you treasure more what you have back home.

I'm into languages, history, geography, and unique architecture. I realized that I can learn more about them by traveling.

Also, traveling lets me open myself more with the people. I think that beyond the beautiful places, meeting the nicest people is what keeps me traveling from one country to the other. ❤

MY DREAM DESTINATION IS SPAIN!!! -- WHICH I FINALLY VISITED IN SEPTEMBER 2018!!!

MY NEXT GOAL IS TO TRAVEL SOUTH AMERICA!!!

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I'm looking for people to meet who are willing to bring me around their country. I enjoy hanging out with locals.

And as a way of giving back to the hospitality that I get when I travel abroad, I tour travelers who want to explore my beloved city, Makati. I also host people (and bags) when I am free.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I went bicycle riding for an entire day in Siem Reap, Cambodia. I slightly had to catch up in biking with my 2 guy friends but I told them not to slow down because I wanted to challenge myself. On our way back, unfortunately, we got drenched in the rain! The roads were a bit flooded but we got back safe and proud to make it! One for the books! :-)
