About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel to as many countries as I can, to meet different people from different countries and foster friendship, camarederie, loyalty and to share amazing adventures. I 'm a people person, a traveler, friend. I prefer walking than running.

ABOUT ME

Okay, I'm irwin and i'm a funny guy. I like meeting people and talking to them. Learning another culture is I think the biggest knowledge that a person could have. Every time I meet new peeps, I ask them about their country, culture, language and ask to translate some words/phrases. Most importantly, I ask them to share specifically their traveling adventures and i try to take note of these pieces of information because they might be helpful to my next travel. I am very outgoing and I would like to maximize my prime. I like to do anything and everything under the sun (except killing myself). I like pizza and cheese. I can survive a hundred years by eating just cheese! LOL...but seriously, i love sharing my story.

PHILOSOPHY

"No one dies by asking question" -

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

just a crazy zip-lining in Palawan, Philippines. It is the longest one at 800 meters starting from a very steep cliff and ending in the center island in the great blue sea. Amazing experience, scary at first but really exciting!!!

Dancing in the streets of Siem Reap, Cambodia.
Dancing salsa, meringue and bachata in Colombia.
Took a bath inside a volcano in Cartagena.
Dancing samba in Rio de Janeiro.
