CURRENT MISSION

I am currently working and living in Shanghai, China, as a means to travel Asia extensively and to fund my interest in Archaeology and Geography.

ABOUT ME

I'm a person intrigued by the very nature of our existence and the diversity of all humankind. I believe in the full enjoyment of life while positively interacting with other earthlings. I'm an outgoing person finding it easy to communicate with people from all walks of life. I'm curious and hungry for knowledge. I just love to enjoy the small, sometimes overlooked things on earth.
