I moved from the Philippines to an island somewhere in the Caribbean called Anguilla. Most people see me as an extrovert, but I don't completely agree because I think I'm probably a mix of both. I am easy going and I don't like stressing myself too much over something I don't have any control. I'm the person who doesn't like small talks. It's either we'll talk a lot or not talk at all. I love listening or exchanging stories about travels, life and culture. When traveling, I don't really set concrete plans and tend to be spontaneous. I believe more fun experiences happen unplanned!
Interested in Beer
Interested in Books & Literature
Fluent in Cebuano

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
When I finally decided to expand my circle, I made a lot of friends in Couchsurfing. It's one of the best platforms to meet people from different parts of the world and make new friends whenever I travel alone.
Music, Movies, and Books
Music: I don't have favorites and I'm more of an old soul when it comes to music. I like songs by Bread, Abba, Barry Manilow, Carpenters and Fleetwood Mac. Recently, I became fond of listening to songs by Little Mix, Pink and some songs by Lady Gaga. Movies: I love MARVEL. Superheroes and superpowers! I also love Harry Potter, though I don't get to remember every character's name. Books: I like to read books by Mitch Albom, Nicholas Sparks and Paolo Coelho. I've read Harry Potter and Lorien Legacies (I Am Number Four series).
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Sang a song I'm not really familiar with in front of almost 4,000 people! (Only practiced with the band a night before and practice with full voice only once! Imagine my stage fright! Haha!) Joined an online singing contest to win a prize and donate everything to a particular event (If you're curious if I won, yeah, I did get most likes so I won! Hahaha! I campaigned for 2 weeks straight!) Cliff jumping (I got bruised on my first cliff jump! But I tried again though. I don't want to miss the experience and the adrenaline rush)
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach you how to speak Cebuano and Waray2×!
My Interests
I started to like reading books when I had my first published story. It was in our local language, so I felt the need to enhance my vocabulary to be able to write more stories and better ones. But since my love for writing stories is in hiatus, now I only read books that are strongly recommended by friends or really caught my interest. When I'm bored and not in the mood to read/write, I research DIY decorations for my room! My love for beer started when I was still a baby! Haha! JK. I just love that ice-cold beer. 😁 Who doesn't love to travel? And who doesn't love food?!? Oh, com'on! Haha
