Hello! Hola! Bonjour! Welcome to Chester’s life in a nutshell! I am a Filipino-Canadian citizen who is based in Vancouver, British Columbia. I am a registered nurse (how can I be more Filipino than this). The goal is to be a global citizen and explore as many countries as possible. I believe that through this platform, I can meet diverse people who I can teach, learn and share experiences, knowledge, connections with. I always try to spark joy as my little contribution to make this planet a better place to live. I enjoy a lot of things outdoors which includes but not limited to hiking, camping, walking, biking, swimming, and playing some sports. I also love photography (I may take too many videos, portraits or selfies) which means I can be your photographer if needed. I love eating out, going for drinks, and chilling at cafes. I also enjoy immersing myself at any place and just get lost in the process. I love spontaneity and adventures. I keep an open mind into doing things I have not experienced and definitely open to experiencing different cultures and traditions. With that being said, I am looking forward to meeting you guys. In the meantime, let’s enjoy this world that we’re living in and send awesomeness to everyone! Magandang araw sa’yo! Have a great day! Bonne journée! P.S. Only taking requests for April. I am be able to host depending on my work schedule as I do shift work. I usually work 4 on and 4 off. Shoot me a text and we can figure something out. If I’m not able to host I would still be down to hangout. I met some of my really good friends in here. Would also love to show you guys around the city if you’d like. I have a vehicle here so I can drive if needed. Looking forward to welcoming you in lovely Vancouver. Proud 🌈, if that matters

Teach, Learn, Share
👨🏻🏫 I can teach you how to speak Tagalog, teach some photography skills I have 📝 I love to learn so shoot me with what you’ve got and my brain will process them accordingly. Most of all, I love to learn new languages, different history, different cuisines, cultures (especially different festivals and celebrations), and new skills in general. 🗣 Share what I love doing, who I am and where I come from, and my knowledge. I can share a few Filipino words here and there. My culture- love for singing, laughters, and some Filipino history.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Share stories and experiences with a cup of coffee, with meals, or drinks. Explore the city together. Share laughters together. I can also help with chores if needed. Also, my friends swear by my closet organization skills and itinerary making skills so I can give some tips with that. I am always open to sharing what I have and what I know.
