One way ticket, I am still chasing my little and naive dream when I was in my early 20s.

From Dawson(Canada) to Ushuaia(Argentina), this 14475 km journey through all Americas, I turned to my 30s.

Traveled/lived 1 year in Latino America, I really love this amazing wonderland, just like a book of magic realism. Guatemala, Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, Brazil, and Colombia, Mexico! Those places actual la they are su much different! I had so many great experiences and stories there! Thanks a lot!

I think now I do have a latino heart, and I am LaChino(Latino mix with Chino), the moment I crossed border from Tijuana to San Diego, I was lost, for a long time! I think I just miss so much of Latino.

But journey always continues, you will never know where you gonna be, if your heart is always has feeling of exile! But we have to enjoy the moment! Aquí y ahora, siempre es hoy! (Here and now, forever is today)

I used to work in the wild for 3 years, be away from the normal life which makes me cherish a lot of small things in life. Like somehow just walking on the conceret street is really sexy!

Then now time for me to travel and turing 30 in this trip. So far have been to more than 40 countries and territories, but it's not about the number, it's about how to see the other part of world people live, indeed the diversity makes world more colorful, I am a simple Chinese seeking inner peace from it:)
