Interests

Photographer. Adventurer. PC Gamer.

Loves reading novels, outdoor adventures : caving, diving, sailing, hiking, trekking, rollerblading, facebooking (lol!), meeting new friends, hanging out in the movies, eating, cooking, photography, reading comics, travelling, seeing new world wonders, experience different cultures, eating different delicacies of different countries, shopping, enjoying summer weather, walks in the park opposite my hostel...

I have a new hobby now : Postcards! I love receiving them! Especially of Japanese Gotochi Postcards and UNESCO World Heritage Sites or cards that show cultural/festivals/food/something special of the country you're from! :)

Music, Movies, and Books

I basically love almost all movies as long as they are enjoyable to watch like Dark Knight, Game of Thrones, Avatar : The Last Airbender, Great Debaters, Moulin Rouge, Star Wars, Star Trek...anything! XD

Books! I love reading Jeffrey Archer short stories, Fantasy novels like David Edding's novels such as The Belgariad and The Elenium and The Tamuli, or food for thought novels like The Alchemist, children books like Roald Dahl...and most of all...I love...yep! Harry Potter! XD I'm a BIG fan of Harry Potter ever since I was 10!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-Spelunking in the giant caves of Mulu; of note is the Clearwater Connection caving experience which I must say, I truly loved it!

-Seeing the Aurora Borealis dancing up above in the night skies of Northern Norway. The beauty of it is indescribable!

-Hiking up Mount Kinabalu, the highest mountain in Malaysia. Planning to do via ferrata the next time around :)

-Hiking up Mount Sinai in Egypt. Not the highest peak in Egypt but still hiking up at midnight with the skies filled with millions of stars was just breathtaking...pun intended :P

-Hiking up Mount Api in Mulu. The Pinnacles formations was just something I had to witness with my own eyes after seeing them on BBC's Planet Earth.

-Visited the Glacier Solheimajökull in Iceland. Everything about Iceland amazes me actually! :D

-Visited Wonders of the World - the Pyramids of Giza, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, the Colosseum in Rome, Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, Stonehenge in England, Great Wall of China.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach hehe...the arts of photography and cooking!
Photography is really just a hobby of mine but one that I do take seriously and do hope I can share and learn tricks from other photographers too!

Cooking, I cook on a daily basis because I live in a hostel environment and err..I don't like the cafeteria food so..I cook on my own. I tend to cook more Asian food, but nonetheless enjoy cooking Western dishes too. :)
On a different note...hehe...raw salmon makes my day! LOL! wtf!

Share...I can share...anything! My food, clothes, knowledge, just ask away! :D
