こんにちは 👋 my name is Kris but I prefer you call me "Kheibi". I live in the beautiful country called Philippines. Heard about my place? Philippines is one of the best destinations you should not missed because it offers a lot of majestic and amazing places for all - local and foreigner tourists.

My family is living in the southern part of Mindanao which I think not familiar for most of the tourist out there. My city is notorious and tagged as the "Tuna Capital" of the Philippines (do you have already an idea? ) where you could see the Big Tuna fishes. Yes! that's right, our city named General Santos. It is a two hours flight by plane from the capital city Manila, Philippines in Luzon. It could be gateway to other cities in Mindanao like Davao City, Cagayan de Oro, and SOCSARGEN Region.

I haven't tried surfing yet, we usually do more of hosting. We've been an active host of AFS Program (for exchange students), Workaway (for volunteers) and now CS. If you want to explore more of Philippines especially do CS on our countryside. Just let me know, I would be glad to welcome you on our humbly home. We would like to exchange stories and intercultural experience with you.

It is better to fill up well your profile with appropriate data for better references. And let me know ahead of time your arrival & departure, duration of your stay.
