Overview
About Me
Hello! :)
My name is Dian Luca, I'm a software engineer who quit his job over a year ago to travel the world.
I've been backpaking/volunteering in different countries, especially in Asia, so I always get to live local experiences while could explore the country.
Some of the volunteering experiences I've done
- I helped a woman monk teach English in Thailand
- I planted coffee in Indonesia and olives in Japan
- Worked in two language cafés in Korea
- I handed out flyers for an electronic party on an island in Thailand
- I taught English to children in a small village in the middle of nowhere
- I've also worked in several hostels in a wide variety of roles
Some random facts:
- I really enjoy talking, no matter what the subject is
- Practicing meditation, stretching/yoga and running are essential for me
- Drinking good coffee is like a morning and afternoon ritual
- Wander aimlessly around the city, taking pictures of people is a hobby
- I tend to be curious and like to try lots of different foods
