CURRENT MISSION

eat delicious food all over the world

ABOUT ME

I love traveling, especially when I can learn about new cultures and meet interesting people. I try to be as open-minded as possible and accepting of worldviews and personal beliefs different from my own. I am most definitely addicted to adrenaline. I like being out in the wilderness but I also like the fast pace of cities. I love trying new things, especially food related. If you meet me while I'm traveling, don't be surprised if I take a whole lot of pictures.

I run a food and travel blog, at world-flavor.com, which you can read to find out more!

PHILOSOPHY

My personal motto is 'savour every moment.' I know I don't always follow it, but I strive to. I want to get the most out of my life and things that happen. I try to stay spontaneous and seize opportunities when they appear. I also think reflection is important, so I try to journal or blog about my experiences, and take pictures to capture moments.
