CURRENT MISSION

Traveling the world

ABOUT ME

A couple of years ago I decided I wanted to see the world so I did. Walked out the door, to the highway and stuck my thumb up. I traversed Europe, the middle east and Asia, then sailed across the Pacific to Alaska. After hitchhiking down through Canada I got myself a motorcycle and drove it down to Panama. Then drifted down the Amazon river in south America till I got to Guyana and decided 3,5 years and 54 countries were enough for the first trip. I'm now living in Hanoi doing an internship.
