About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm a buddhist and I believe in Karma.

I love gardening and playing with kids. Staying neutral and avoiding any fight is my way of living. I can listen to one's story for hours and do like to share mine. Food and beverage are my things since I have grown up in a house with many chefs.

Up to things fun and abnormal.

Expect The Unexpected.

PHILOSOPHY
+ Karma
+ Some people are so poor, all they have is money
+ In the end, we only regret the chances we did not take

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Co-founder of a social enterprise called Green Youth Collective. We do vocational training for disadvantaged youth, awareness raising for kids and youth especially disadvantaged ones about sustainable living and natural loving.

Also I made a wonderful 4 month road trip around the US. I mainly did exploring culture, visiting friends, driving through 35 states, camping almost every nights, hiking up some of the best National Parks, dumpster diving, etc. And I did it again 2 years after the first road trip.
