Hi! I'm Utami, an adventurous soul who loves exploring new cultures, meeting people, and sharing stories. I enjoy meaningful conversations, discovering local hidden gems, and embracing the little surprises that travel brings. Friends would describe me as friendly, curious, and open-minded.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m on Couchsurfing to connect with people from around the world, to experience authentic local life, and to create friendships that go beyond borders. It’s more than just finding a place to stay, it’s about sharing stories, learning from each other, and building a global community.

Interests

I love connecting with people over shared passions. Music, books, and movies inspire me and give me new perspectives on life. Traveling is my way of learning, every new city or town has its own story, and I enjoy uncovering it while meeting locals. I'm fascinated by languages and enjoy picking up a few phrases in every country I visit.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy a wide range of music, from indie to jazz, and occasionally some upbeat pop. My favorite books are a mix of fiction and travel memoirs, and I love watching films that make me think, laugh, or inspire new ideas. I’m always open to recommendations!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of the most amazing experiences I’ve had was watching the sunrise over Mount Bromo, participating in a local festival in Bali, etc. It reminded me how big and beautiful the world is, and how much there is to learn from people and places.

Teach, Learn, Share

I’m happy to teach English, cooking, or a hobby and I’m always eager to learn about local traditions, food, or skills. I love exchanging knowledge and experiences with the people I meet, whether it’s over a cup of coffee, a walk around the city, or a home-cooked meal.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer good company, engaging conversation, and a willingness to help around the house if needed. I enjoy cooking and sharing meals, telling stories, or helping with small tasks. I’m respectful of your space and always happy to contribute to a warm, friendly atmosphere.
