CURRENT MISSION

Live life as it is, moment by moment

ABOUT ME

Can't ride a bike, can't drive a car, clumsy feet (i sprained my left ankle and got a fracture in the right foot - not at the same time though), but i'm still looking forward to travelling around Thailand, Laos and Cambodia for a couple of months. Will try not to break anything... with me or around me!

PHILOSOPHY

A path is made by walking... So take a step and if you stumble, get up and keep on walking.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
