About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Mission sounds a little too serious... just trying to discover and experience new things in this life

ABOUT ME

Typical Gemini...
It's quiet easy for me to feel people and to communicate. And if you are a good story teller, then I can be a good listener!
I also like cooking (when i have time and not feeling lazy), love cooking Thai food, salads and pasta.
I'm a very clean person but not a cleanliness freak.. i guess i better stop..enough!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

just want to say that this is an amazing project, and i hope more and more people can be involved in it

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i agree it's a good way to know people and cultures, while spending less money on hotels - yes, spending less money while you are travelling is important, but i think you would agree with me what is more important is meeting local people in a casual situation!!
