About Me

I’ll be in Cebu until the end of November.

I love seeing old and beautiful architecture, as well as beautiful nature 🌲🏝️
I enjoy learning about all kinds of religions, races, cultures, and foods.

My hobbies include snowboarding, scuba diving, caving, visiting hot springs, exploring cafés, and admiring historical buildings.
Lately, I’ve been wanting to try more wreck and cave diving, and I’d love to experience freediving someday too.
