A social entrepreneur from Myanmar running a social enterprise I founded 13 years ago helping food producers and farmers with technical solutions. I live alone in Yangon and devoting most of my time on the causes I care about. Jazz enthusiast, amateur golfer and TEDx speaker living contentedly with 3 cats in Yangon.

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

I want to seek perspectives of different human beings from different communities with different groupthink, and rituals (call it culture or otherwise) while they have different resources and opportunities endowed. In this way, I hope to broaden and validate my worldview closer to truth.

Музыка, кино и книги

Music: Miles Davis, Bill Evans, Bob James, Chet Baker, Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, Vivaldi, Chris Botti, Bille Joel, Cool and The Gang, The Beatles, Damien Rice; Earth, Wind and Fire are some of them.

Normally I balance my life between Jazz and Classical. When I feel too chaotic, I listen to classicals to give me a bit of order/structure. When I feel too ordered, I listen to Jazz to make me a little fluid and spontaneous. Anything else in between is bonus.

Movies: Any thought-provoking movies and documentaries

Books: I’ll let you have a look at my Kindle let you comment if we happen to meet

Классная вещь, которую я сделал(-а)

Led a college football team to win back to back championship in Singapore.

Met 3 Nobel Laureates. One of them is POTUS and the other one, perplexed by my existentialist question, is a NASA astrophysicist/cosmologist from James Webb Space Telescope.

Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией

As an INFJ, I think I have a lot of serious topics to share when I meet with someone I can meaningfully connect.

Чем я могу поделиться с хостами

My experiences of running a social enterprise in one of the least developed countries.

In broader sense, the path how I came to see the (ultimate, not relative) truth, how it sets me free to do more fulfilling things in life other than chasing material wealth. Not surprisingly, I see this trend in many backpacker travelers and I found it really fascinating.
