With a Filipino-Chinese background, dividing my time between the Central Andes of Peru and Vancouver, BC, I'm always enthusiastic about cultural exchange.

I'm more of a homebody (even when I travel, I value the day-to-day experiences more than seeing sites), and I love deep, insightful conversations that have me thinking differently about life and the world.
