About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to traverse across the world

ABOUT ME

i love to travel. this is because i feel its a good way to which we can change the world, in a very minute but essential way. cause once you've interacted and made friends with someone from another culture, ethic group, religion etc. you've made a connection and when you see the news, or any other statement or stereotype, broadcasted or otherwise. you will be able to interpret things differently, compared to those who live in a bubble and believe anything the movies show them. besides, i think i can learn alot about myself, the world and so much more just by travelling.

not only that, i love listening to music and attending concerts. just that its so painful on the pockets for a student:( i love the beach and mountains and deserts haha! but not the forest lol! maybe cause i'm born in a tropical country and i've seen enough forested trees

lastly, i love to meet people cause what is the world for without people:)

PHILOSOPHY

It’s simply two lives running parallel for a while, with common aspirations and similar dreams.
-ernesto che guevara

life is not light, but the refracted colour
-faust

we are what we think.
all that we are arises with our thoughts.
with our thoughts we make the world.
-Buddha > i'm not a buddhist but this is a great quote:)
