About Me

ABOUT ME

Hey!
I've been here for a while, surfing during traveling and hosting/meeting travelers when I'm available.
Currently, I'm taking my master degree in Shanghai, before that I lived for a year in Beijing.
I play ultimate frisbee, like film photography. During traveling I'm trying to feel the country, city, people.
I wander around small Hong Kong streets, play basketball with Philippine kids, drink refreshing Vietnamese coffee. I'm flexible and open-minded, avoid judgments and expect the same from my friends and companions.

PHILOSOPHY
Stay focused, be present
