About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Backpacking around the world.

ABOUT ME

1. Medical student, which means I am going to be a doctor soon yeah? Oh well, a lot people might think that why I have free time to travel instead of digesting my books at home. Well, travelling teaches you about things which you can't get it from the books.

2. Party animal, oh yeah I love to party all night long. Sometimes you just need some beers to boost up your energy, YOLO! But I am not a smoker, take that (I love my lungs)!

3. Part-time photographer. Another interesting about me, I will carry my DSLR camera whenever I travel to. Capturing photos is just like capturing those amazing moments in your life. So don't hesitate to invite me for outdoor photoshooting, I will definitely say YES!

4. Backpacking dude. I love backpacking so much just like all of you do. My next big trip is going to be around Europe. I am done exploring Asia, Australia and New Zealand.

5. I love food. Oh well, I would love to try food from all over the world. A must!

PHILOSOPHY

1. The World is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page.

2. I'm not lost, I've just temporarily lost sight of my destination.

3. One's destination is never a place, but a new way of seeing things.

4.Travel is more than having a destination in mind; it's discovering a place in your heart you've never been before.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Too many to be mentioned. In a nutshell, love life and everything is beautiful!

Teach, Learn, Share

Couchsurfing is such an awesome association. It simply connects all the backpackers and travellers from all over the world! Many of these things can't be learned at home or in a book, and while reading about them on the internet can only get you so far, a lot of people have asked me to explain how I've done it.

1. Most of the world's people are friendly and decent.

2. Most places are as safe (or safer) than home.

3. 'Travelers' and 'Tourists' are different.

4. Don't worry about traveling alone (it's better).

5. When everything gets irritating, it might be time to head home.

6. Long-term traveling can teach you more than almost anything else
