Easy-going and adventurous guy from the Philippines (currently based in Toronto, Canada). I find joy and thrill in exploring new places: asking for directions, walking aimlessly, diving off from cliffs, and having conversations with locals. I like hanging out at the parks, going to the beach, taking pictures of the sky, cooking, and dancing. And I definitely enjoy having meaningful conversations about life. Lastly, I am a big hugger!

Teach, Learn, Share
I was once told by a friend that the world would have been less colorful without me in it. That’s probably the best thing I could share with you and the rest of the world: new shades of excitement, conversations, and connections! But I can also cook really good Adobo (Philippines’ national dish) and other dishes!
