About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I remember when I first read The Alchemist; a great book by Paulo Coelho that almost made me want to be a explorer and follow my dreams.

ABOUT ME

I don't know what I should exactly say here, however here we go :)
I am simple, quite, honest, not smoker, healthy, hmmmm
in love with adventure, exploration not only new places also I like to explore new food and cultures; Traveller, not home person, clear.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is not too short if you stop wasting your time and focus on your dreams.
