About Me

I am a communication design graduate student who's still trying to figure what is next. How awesome my 'About Me' is it? But trust me, I am being a hundred percent myself here when I said that.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In summer 2014 I had my first experience on CouchSurfing while travelling in Germany where I have met so many interesting people with lots of different ideas. I have travelled from city to city in clockwise by starting my journey from Frankfurt am Main> Köln > Hamburg > Berlin > Nürnberg > Ingolstadt > Füssen > München > Konstanz > Stuttgart > Heidelberg and back again in Frankfurt am Main. Though it was only such a short period of 2 months, I can honestly say that that summer will be one of my favorites summer ever.

Summer 2015, a summer after, through all the effort I put in study and a big attempt in finding my internship position, I fortunately got a chance to work in design office in Offenbach am Main for 5 months, where I got to learn how to be more professional and some basic, important skills in working professionally. By putting myself in working situation and surrounding myself with new environment, my mind grows far out of my age. I started to see more and deeper about the world.

After I graduated in 2016, I decided to come to Berlin to study German and currently having class everyday (B1), so that I can gain in-depth understanding of art, design, and music of German culture. I’ve been keeping this as an inspiration ever since, and looking forward to apply for master degree here once my language knowledge is sufficient enough and my portfolio is ready.
