CURRENT MISSION

"The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page."

ABOUT ME

Hello! My name is Vince Jison and I'm currently living in California, USA. I've lived in California the majority of my life but spent my high school years in Thailand at the International School of Bangkok. Since that life changing move, I cannot get enough of traveling! I've had the opportunity to visit other countries such as Mexico, Canada, Japan, S Korea, China, Singapore, Cambodia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Philippines, Italy, Greece, Spain, the UK, and France.
What I absolutely love about traveling is the opportunity to meet new people and experience a side of the world I hadn't seen before. To sum up my thoughts:

"The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page." -St. Augustine

PHILOSOPHY

"Life is too short to be spent in traffic."

Interests

I'm a bit of a geek so I love anything science or technology related hehe There are so many cool things being developed right now and new inventions seem to be popping up everywhere! The reason I decided to study electrical engineering was because I wanted to be part of this new and exciting era of technology.
Outside of my school work, I have a few other hobbies :) I do a bit of "pop-art-esque" painting on the side using a mix of acrylic and spray paint. Weather permitting, I enjoy skim-boarding at the beach or longboarding/skateboarding the hills around where I live.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a sucker for comedies or war movies!
My taste in music varies over a wide range of genres. I really love Punk Rock, Reggae, Indie Rock, and Electronic Dance Music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moving to Thailand when I was 14 was one of the biggest life changing experiences so far. Prior to the move, I had lived in California my whole life and had never really had the opportunity to see the world outside of the United States. The high school I attended in Thailand, the International School of Bangkok, really opened my eyes allowed me to meet and make friends with kids from all different parts of world. Since then, I've made it a personal life goal to travel more and experience what this world has to offer :)
