About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Develop and maintain a strong friendship with people wherever I go.

ABOUT ME

I enjoy venturing out to new places and meeting people. I'm striving for more freedom so I can try out new hobbies and travel more. I enjoy reading Naruto/One Piece Manga, bicycling, hiking, playing basketball, dancing like a goofball and of course eating!

PHILOSOPHY

Live in the present moment. Stay positive. Don't let a bad experience from changing who you really are. Follow your passion, it'll lead you to your dreams.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being a tour guy for my buddy. I helped him create an itinerary to visit various romantic places in NYC so he can propose to his fiancee at Empire State building. Now he's happily married for over 5 years with two babies. My friend and his wife plans on revisiting NYC so I'll have to step up my game and show them an even better and different experience in NYC.

Teach, Learn, Share

People who traveled and are down to earth. People from different countries so I can learn what food they usually eat, how to speak their language, finding similar values and beliefs, and most importantly being able to connect with them. Despite language and cultural differences, we're all simply humans with friends and families and job that we may either hate or love haha.
