CURRENT MISSION

I am currently living in Taipei and using it as a culture shock to what was an easyish life. I want to travel SE Asia before moving onto my next phase which is... who knows where?

ABOUT ME

I am a tall, easy going guy that wants to travel. I'm a fairly inexperienced traveler, but am learning quickly. In a new place, I love going to see the historical and culturally significant places and spend very little time in the trendy party hang outs.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live. Experience people as they are, not as you want them to be.
