CURRENT MISSION

To visit everywhere country in the world

ABOUT ME

I recently quit my job and am off on some travels for a few months. I'm starting in Europe without a defined itinerary and am then heading to Ethiopia and the US. I'd like to try my hand at travel writing as well.

I'm a huge traveller. Have been to 70 countries so far and have around 120 to go. A few of my highlights include anything and everything in Tibet, gorilla trekking in Rwanda, climbing Mt Kilimanjaro in Tanzania and a larger mountain in Bolivia, getting bitten by a scorpion in Nicaragua, tramping in New Zealand and trekking through Laos.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

The hardest thing I've ever done was climb Huayna Potosi in Bolivia. At 20,000ft (6,088m), it's kinda big and having not slept for days and suffering from altitude sickness it probably wasn't a good idea to make the final ascent but I somehow did, got the preliminary stages of frostbite in my big toe, couldn't balance properly on the way down and slept for 15 hours straight the following night. For some reason I enjoyed all of this.
