About Me

Hello! I am moving to Texas!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I found out about couch surfing before my first trip abroad (8 years ago!). Ever since, used it to help others when visiting my neck of the woods, and also help the new places that I visit (or live) feel more like Home. It’s not Home unless you’ve got homies :)

Interests

Adventures (of any kind): hiking, climbing, dancing, trying new foods, reading, talking with new people, self inquisition, and learning.

Don't watch too many movies (unless they're acclaimed to be REALLLLLLLLLLY GOOD)

Reading mainly for academic purposes but once in a while I'll have the luxury of reading one for fun.
