关于我

CURRENT MISSION

make a difference in the world, a dent big enough for people to remember

ABOUT ME

I live on a spectacular part of the island of Samui! I'll be here for a bit and so I thought I'd reactivate my hosting duties here on CS!

I've been noticing the change in requests recently and since I started years back, I was open to all kinds of requests but this new wave of surfers have lost the sense of what this site is about and what I loved about it so yes, there would be a more stringent approach to choosing my surfers from now on. (August 2016)

i have been traveling for over two years now and it really is just spiraling into an addiction. there is nothing that can compare to the lessons you learn while you're traveling and exposing yourself to all these new experiences.

in manila, i did my senior thesis on the tourism of metro manila. I made a map for backpackers. i havent printed a lot of the map but i can share all the stuff i have researched about manila with you! hopefully, i can share it to all the backpackers of manila in the future! :D

PHILOSOPHY

dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today

Look at you. You are young. And you are scared. Why are you so scared? Stop being paralyzed. Stop swallowing your words. Stop caring what other people think. Wear what you want. Say what you want. Listen to the music you want to listen to. Play it loud as fuck and dance to it. Go out for a drive at midnight and forget that you have school the next day. Stop waiting for Friday. Live now. Do it now. Take risks. Tell secrets. This life is yours. When are you going to realize that you can do whatever you want?

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

competing in Australia and Singapore for Athletics...seeing all different nationalities in one stadium, enjoying life

flying to Vietnam on a whim, buying the tickets a day before after telling my agent to book me the cheapest flight out of the country

spending my birthday on the train from Shanghai to Beijing with a standing room only ticket...8 or 12 hours of sleeping on the floor of the train

being an erasmus mundus student...

hitchhiking from Amsterdam to Antwerp...

2010 birthday in Barcelona, biking around the city, learning how to SAIL with the help of Luis Outeiro and sleeping on a yacht with the help of Kevin McCarthy

Sailing from the Galápagos Islands in South America crossing the Pacific Ocean and stopping at the most idyllic islands all the way to Australia
