About Me

CURRENT MISSION

explore my own country and Southeast Asia while saving for work and holiday visa to Australia

ABOUT ME

I always have problem when I have to describe myself. Why don't you tell me and put it at the reference part? Just read on my reference, that seems more fair and not look like Narcissus.

PHILOSOPHY

"You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. I hope someday you'll join us and the world will be as one."
