CURRENT MISSION

To conquer the world by meeting fellow nomads, creatives and free spirits.

ABOUT ME

I live to see new places and meet new people. Very interested in art, design, music and film and would love to meet other creatives anywhere in the world!

I am a fashion designer and milliner (meaning i make hats - i get a lot of questions about what it is, lol) and I spend my time between Manila and London. I also sing for an indie pop band in the Philippines.

A big part of traveling for me is meeting people in every city. I don't fancy being a textbook tourist, I love seeing local culture - what people eat on a day to day basis, quaint spots et al.

I love odd things and fancy dress and kitsch events and places. I must say that I absolutely love picnics. I also enjoy markets, and I adore vintage anything -- don't think there is anything like vintage glamour!

Im a big contemporary art fan so whenever I go anywhere, museums and galleries are a major priority. Music is also a big part of my life, I mostly like indie pop and indie rock (see the music section for more) and I try and go to a gig everywhere I go.

PHILOSOPHY

Create everyday.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Its been amazing. I met the most beautiful souls in so many cities I barely know. Sometimes you just have to trust in people's goodness and you'll get the greatest experiences.

I can sew. I can also cook so I would love to teach you how to make a Filipino meal!
