Zil is here. An austronesian who comes from tropical Malay Archipelago with its various ethnicities. I do hiking and climbing a lot, mostly on tropical volcanic mountains. Currently enjoying my slow-pace living in Bantul.

If you play drum, you can easily recognized my name as Zildjian is also a brand for drum’s cymbal (yes, my dad is kind of musician so he gave me that name). But unfortunately, I can’t play drum instead I play guitar😂

I do bouldering on a weekly basis now. Also, I’m preparing to continue my study in Physics at the moment. Still figuring out what to do in life, maybe this will be a never ending quest for me as I keep changing my plans throughout my life and for me, life is like trial and error. So I just keep experimenting my value and perspective.

If you wanna stay at my place, it’d be nice if you also tell me why are you interested to stay with me. Either you just wanna know about local cultures or we have something in common. That way, I feel appreciated and I know that you’re not only looking for a free place to stay, but also a meaningful connection.

I read quite a lot of books and travel around my country as those are one of the best way to grow in life.

Call my name by my nickname so I know that you read this.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people with different backgrounds and ethnicities. Aren’t we all?

Also, it is always nice to have a meaningful connection from people all over the world. I wanna learn from them to broaden my perspective of understanding this world.

I’d love to share my experiences of outdoor activities. I quite know well my surrounding geographical features and willing to take you to some amazing places.

Also I can teach you Indonesian language and culture such as Javanese script. And sharing my travel/hiking stories.
