About Me

Single, open-minded, understanding, friendly and generous. I am an International Humanitarian Aid Worker. I started working in Humanitarian World since 2003. You may follow me at my FB: facebook/i.travel2live

I had been to Emergency Responses in Indonesia (Tsunami 2005-2006), Sudan (Darfur conflict 2006-2008); Indonesia (Earthquake 2009); Pakistan (Floods 2010), Yemen (Complex Crises, 2010-2012); Somalia (Famine 2011); Afghanistan (Complex Crises 2012/14); Philippines (Typhoon 2012); Jordan (Syrian Crises 2013); Lebanon (Syrian Crises, 2014-present); and a short mission in Bangladesh (Rohingya Crises, 2017) and recently in Iraq.

I like to travel, discover places, explore the unknowns, learning culture and meeting new friends.
