About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Discover the best cuisine across the globe

ABOUT ME

I was born in Singapore, but 2 weeks after my birth I immediately moved to Jakarta and lived there for 2 years. After I grew up in Bali, Japan, Malaysia, Bali again, Australia, a bit in the Maldives and now I am finishing my studies in the Netherlands.
In terms of where I am from (if that doesn't describe it so well) I am half Thai and a quarter Dutch ;)

PHILOSOPHY

Take initiative. You won't get anywhere without it, I hope I can influence others to have a similar attitude.
