CURRENT MISSION

Read 20 books until the end of this year.

ABOUT ME

I want to visit Antarctica and wake up to the Northern Lights, ride the Transsiberian Railway and backpack through Central and South America. And of course go back to Africa and dine with the giraffes. These are probably the primary things I have set up for the next couple of years. But generally I try to be a very outgoing person who likes to drink a pint or two and have fun conversations with people I meet next table.

PHILOSOPHY

Share hugs, share happiness.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Met some great people so far and want to continue doing it for the parts of the world I have not discovered yet.

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't really have a favourite song since I practically listen to everything depending on my mood, but KPop has been a part of my life and Spotify's "Peaceful Piano" has been my to-go playlist since 2016.
Regarding movies, "The Age of Adaline" is one that has stayed on my mind. I also have been an avid anime viewer growing up, paired with romcoms twisting my view on romance hahah.
Books I am currently reading are by Yuval Noah Harari, Elon Musk's biography and Edgar Allan Poe's Collector's Works, just to name a few.
