Hello! I am Eli, 26 years old, living in Auckland, New Zealand for over 3 years (I've been living everywhere in Auckland since I came here at 2012). I am originally from the Philippines and taking the opportunity to live and settle down to New Zealand.

I radiate authenticity, concern and selflessness. I find it natural and easy to communicate to others. Easy-going, really loves to eat, enjoy road-trips and hang-out with friends.

I am working as a Checkout-Assistant Department Manager (New World-Supermarket). At work nothing makes me happier than leading the charge, uniting and motivating my team with infectious enthusiasm. I am passionate and driven to achieve goals in life.

PHILOSOPHY:
Everything you do right now ripples outward and affects everyone. Your posture can shine your heart or transmit anxiety. Your breath can radiate love or muddy the room in depression. Your glance can awaken joy. Your words can inspire freedom. Your every act can open hearts and minds.
-David Deida
