Hi! I am Zulian from Indonesia a Mathematics Student in one of the public universities in Indonesia. I grew up in a "multicultural" family who have built me into who I am now. My father is Bataknese (North Sumatran) and my mother is mixed between Sumatran Malay (Palembang from my grandpa) and Chinese (Hokkian from my grandma).

I love to travel, catch up with new people, learn about history and try national dishes from around the world. I would like to connect and share my stories with others.

Having interests in tradition, culture, and human development, also love to socialize with intercultural societies.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to connect with new people, especially foreigners to learn about culture, society and things that sound new to me.

Interests

I have interest in cultural exchange as this will open my eyes about how big, unique and various the world is. People's stories about their life can be such good lessons I can receive, I'll be a good listener for everyone.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Finished a brief internship in Bali. Where I met new people from around the world, learnt about the cultures and got insights from others based on their life experiences.

Teach, Learn, Share

When I meet people, talking about many things and sharing our thoughts about something are must things to do for me. However, I can teach you my mother tongue language (Indonesian), of course, simple words for beginners and I do love to try to spell and speak in your language either. Also, we can learn about our cultures and have cultural exchanges. Furthermore, I can share my experiences and maybe local products from Indonesia. BTW, I also love to cook if there's an opportunity.
