I'm just somebody in pursuit of knowledge and experience. I’m a bit of an old soul with eclectic interests. I currently work in fine art and tribal art. I appreciate wine and the art of fermentation (I've made wine, ginger beer, mead, and kombucha so far).

I enjoy the beauty of nature; I will hike and camp when given the opportunity. I am also of Filipino decent so I take great interest in Southeast Asian culture.

Algo increíble que he hecho

One thing I’m proud of is the fact I navigated my way around Sabah in Malaysian Borneo with my Malay, which was a bit clumsy at the time, and made it to the “Tip of Borneo” (the island’s most northern point), then a few days later I summited Mount Kinabalu, the 20th tallest mountain on earth!
