About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I'm trying to travel on foot as much as possible starting in NZ first and other countries afterwards. I just love walking...

ABOUT ME

I am originally from Jakarta, Indonesia but have been living in New Zealand for the past 7 years studying and working a lot after my studies. Have met lots of interesting people throughout my stay here in NZ who have had lots of traveling experiences and interesting stories to tell. thanks to them, they've inspired me to get my butt off my own couch, turn off the TV, shut down my laptop, and do my own exploration of the world. hence I left my office job to now be on the road. All I can say is thank you to those who have shown me that traveling is not a luxury, but a MUST! and OH, I am also a vegetarian...

PHILOSOPHY

Life is short so treat the world like it's your playground :)
