About Me

CURRENT MISSION

travelling to Central and South America on my bike.

ABOUT ME

I've been fortunate to be exposed to different cultures and experiences and as a result I'd like to think I became more open minded about things. I like to travel especially on a motorcycle and hope to do more of it in the years to come. I get along with most people except the provocative ones. I am an optimist but also a realist. I love being in school and I consider myself a professional student :) I would stay in school my whole life if I could.

PHILOSOPHY

Life goes on.
A day that I have not learned anything in, is a wasted one.

too many to mention, above all my beloved motorcycle, my KLR 650 that I lost in Chile. And of course soccer, reading, movies, philosophy, working out, hiking, gadgets, fixing things, etc..

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Coolest thing was probably camping alone in the mountains in Peru, a night that I will always remember. I love the moon rise especially the time I saw it in Northshore Hawaii. Hearing my bike running again after falling in the ocean was the sweetest sound, and it only took 4 days of work and an hour and half of pushing, damn Darien Gap!!
