About Me

CURRENT MISSION

seeing the world thru different lenses

ABOUT ME

I love to travel partially because I love to meet people and experience new culture. When I am not traveling, I like to meet you instead. Hit me up; if I am already going out, doing something, come along; otherwise if I'm free and you seem cool, always more than happy to tell you about LA or maybe even get a drink.

PHILOSOPHY

live life to the fullest with no regrets one day at a time. learn from everything and everyone and cherish every experience lived.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It is around dawn and the breeze just feels right. The grass and tree frolic gently as time passes by. I recall standing on a wooden patio looking into a green pasture of a ranch extending into a line of forest reaching into the sky. The sun is quietly bidding farewell as nature enters into a tranquil peace.

I guess for a city boy, having seen high raisers, beautiful yacht, something that simple stroke a chord within.

Teach, Learn, Share

You know, I have been traveling and backpacking for a while now; especially when JetBlue, Southwest or anywhere offering cheap airline tickets for the day. The longest backpacking journey I have done is 30 days, visiting 12 different cites all around North America. What I've learned is that sometimes you just got to roll with the punches and trust that things will work out.
