About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To make a difference in every people I meet (in a good way of course)

ABOUT ME

I'm an easy-going person, laid back and good at laughing with others. Traveling is the one that keeps my sanity in check. I love to meet new faces and cultures. I have long forgone traveling with a big tour group with arranged schedule and its obsession on time. It can be likened to watching a discovery channel where you can feel and smell the thing that you watch but that's it. You can't really get immersed in that place that you're visiting.

Scuba dive is another passion of mine. I see a new world that I would have never seen without diving. I would love to meet people with the same interest.

PHILOSOPHY

There's nothing better than what I have right now and I'm always thankful for that.
