I am an IT (Network) Engineer. I work on projects basis so I have lots time to travel so most of the time of the year I travel.

Love hiking, trekking, beaches and craft beers. I was not into craft beers until I traveled to Latin America but the craft beer was so good there. I like to taste different kind of beers. My Favorite is IPA beers.

I am into healthy foods. I love fruits a lot. I think I can eat Durian everyday. I can say that I am a picky eater. So far Thai, Vietnamese, Indian and Taiwanese foods were the best for me. I become Vegetarian and sometimes Pescatarian when I travel. Love to eat fresh foods.

Not a Party Guy. I like slow life. I'm easy like Sunday morning :)).

I am a music addict. I do love Jazz, Metal, Progressive, Rock....

I do love photography. I can say that I am a travel photographer. You can check my IG to see my photos.
