Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Making the world a better place - one happy person at a time.
ABOUT ME
I like to notice little things most busy people don't; I like to watch rain drops hit the surface of the water in slow motion; I like the smells of fresh bakeries; I like to watch people smile; I like to explore cities in search of little cafes; I believe in the magical power of simple touch; more often than not I cannot keep myself from dancing when I hear techno music; I am the biggest chocolate addict in the world; I don't drink, smoke or do drugs; I might just be the happiest person you'll ever meet.
PHILOSOPHY
My philosophy is simple: do what you can with what you have wherever you are - enjoy life for what it is - don't complain and be happy. Life's too short to not enjoy every single moment of it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
My entire life has naturally been one crazy adventure. Whenever things slow down, I start pushing myself to do amazing things. I've done two marathons and a triathlon. I've been skydiving. Twice. I tore a knee ligament and had two surgeries in the span of 1 month. I was also laid off on the same day of one of those surgeries. I used to work for an investment bank in San Francisco. Then one day I found myself studying hospitality management in Singapore. Can't wait to find out what else this life has to offer!
Teach, Learn, Share
I consider myself a very patient and thorough teacher, so if you're up for a learning experience ... I can teach you some Russian. I can teach you how to juggle. I can teach you how to (properly) throw a frisbee. How to whistle. And how to blow a bubble gum bubble. Among other things, of course.
