About Me

CURRENT MISSION

inspired by people, delight others.

ABOUT ME

I am addicted to traveling, since i was 19, i went to Indonesia for one month, from then on, i can't stop my journey of all around the world.

so far, i have been to 40 countries, in the beginning, i traveled by travel agency with group tour, also with my family when i was little.

after i went alone by myself to Indonesia, i realized that every moment is adventure when travel alone. now i travel by myself.

20 years old, i was in india for 33 days, after that i lived in Finland as an exchange student for five month when i was 22, and i went to 14 countries in northern Europe and Eastern Europe.

this year 2013, i am 23 now, i travel around south america for five month.

every time i am only one person, but i am always not alone, meeting so many amazing friends in the end of my journey.

PHILOSOPHY

I have no religion.

but i believe that when i am positive, all the good thing will come to me after bad thing happen.

everyday i push myself learning something new, ex new knowledge or language, and i do believe that everyday is my lucky day, i can count three lucky things at least
