Hi! My name is Tirta, I'm 23, and I work as a Sofware Engineer in Indonesia (No, I can't hack your ex's facebook). I'm currently living in Bandung, Indonesia, but I grew up living back and forth between Bandung and Albany, California, USA. My interests include anything related to tech, food, culture, and music.

I'm currently working full time as a software engineer, but I also do freelance work as an English-Indonesian translator and interpreter.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I hope to be able to meet people from all over the world, share experiences, point of views, and cultural understanding. I am quite adventurous and is very open to new experiences.
