About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to infinity! and Beyond!!!

ABOUT ME

I am a dreamer, optimist, traveler and most importantly I love people and I love life. I started my own business in KK in 2005 and it totally consume my time and I didn't go anywhere for 3 years. Until I got hooked up with some great traveling buddies and got my breaks. Nothing makes me happier than a good adventure.

Fast forward 2013, I got married and moved to Boston, USA. After a long journey and adventure I met the love of my life and everything could not have worked out any better. We met while I was traveling and we had the most magical love story that I will share when we meet.

PHILOSOPHY

you can't have everything but can always do more with what you got...

"Life is too short to play it safe. Don’t be so afraid to die that you forget to live.

Live big. Be amazing."

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Swimming with thousands of sting-less jelly fish in Shangka-laki, Kalimantan, Indonesia. Snorkeling with a 30ft whale shark in Tioman Island, Malaysia. Seeing a live volcano erupting every 5 mins in Krakatau, Java, Indonesia. Swimming at night with millions of stars hanging in the sky and glowing planktons on my hands & feet in the clear calm sea of Flores Island. Breath taking views of the Grand Canyon, USA. Kayaking in Phi Phi Island, Kite Boarding in Hua Hin, Thailand.

Absolute #1 thing I've done; finding my soulmate and marrying him.
