CURRENT MISSION

Turning a simple country boy into a complicated jungle boy

ABOUT ME

Like to see and experience new things.A constant traveler but also probably the worst traveler!
Have a good knowledge of South East Asia.
Worked as a tour guide all over Asia. In the Philippines, Thailand, India, Burma, Borneo, Indonesia, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam and Malaysia.
Looked after rock stars in London such as Aerosmith, R.E.M, Van Halen, Prince, Madonna etc.
I have been living in Asia since 94 and living in the Philippines more than 15 years and i can meet you and show you around Dumaguete if you wish if i am here as i travel a lot. I know almost all of hikes and trails on Mt.Talinis so can do that if you are up for it or I can take you to 1 of the 9 waterfalls I know of here.
Some of the jungle treks can be steep but usually nobody else will be around unlike the tourist spots. The remote waterfalls are pretty cool and the sulfur dead zone is interesting.
