About Me
CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME
I am a person who enjoys living in a different place. 'Moving' is one thing and 'seeing what's happening there' is another.
More of an idealist than a realist.
Pursuing anthropology through my whole life with the hope of the world free from any sort of discrimination against the nationality, religion, education, sexual orientation, gender, age, or etc. Someone's freedom not to be discriminated and insulted precedes other's freedom to discriminate and insult. The discipline works very well for justifying traveling :)
I don't eat red meat and poultry.
I have never had a TV though. It's just not my thing.
PHILOSOPHY
Be humble.
