About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to meet other couch surfers, especially that I travel a lot!

ABOUT ME

I am an open minded individual who loves to travel..almost travelling anywhere!

PHILOSOPHY

Live life while u can...life is too short!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

READ PROFILE FIRST BEFORE ASKING TO BE HOSTED:

READ FIRST LINE: My house is not a hostel. I rarely take last minute requests. dont expect me to respond to messages asking just to shower and be fed, I am not a B&B hostel!

Dont even try to message me if your request goes like this:
> if you can provide a space until night, so we can drop off our bags and take a shower before we leave
> i have sleeping bags
> i just need a place to stay
GO GET A HOSTEL!

and please read when I am in Las Vegas, as I do not reside there 12months a year! Please, if you are unsure that you will be staying with me, please cancel once you find another host(for courtesy) or else I would be putting a NEUTRAL/NEGATIVE reference on your profile.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Every experience for me is different as I have hosted quite a few surfers in Philippines and in Las Vegas. With each surfer I host, I learned something from them, and a lot more..and sometimes I dont want them to leave since I shared a good bond with them. For some of my surfers I have hosted, I will see them again, since I travel extensively most of the time...so I will get to learn more about their culture when I go to their country....So far, only my first experience was bad, and the rest were okay, some good, some not so good, especially the last one from Vietnam wherein he just needed a free couch and didn't connect with me when we went to Boracay already.
So now I rather not take any last minute couchsurfers as I know they are doing couchsurfing as a free excuse to get a free bed!

So far I am trying surfing now but it seems surfing is harder than hosting. I have tried to surf in Korea and Bangkok now but with no luck..But I am not closing my doors to couchsurfing being as the surfer then..Hopefully on my upcoming trip in Bangkok, I would have the chance to be a surfer since I want to try the experience that my surfers have encountered with their hosts on their travels:)

Interests

working out, meeting new people, be it here in Manila or Las Vegas!
