About Me

CURRENT MISSION

studying, dancing and count life by moments not by time.

ABOUT ME

I am a sailor by profession and trained dancer/ instructor in Salsa(LA style), jive, cha cha & bachata. I always wanted to travel around the world.
Technically i did it by choosing sailing , yes i was a sailor for over 6 yeras onwrchannt shops but that didn't give me the exposure i waa craving for which is to know different cultures around the world.

Boom...!!! One night i woke up quirt my job and started backpakcing ( the best decision ever)

So i packed my bags and started travelling and living one country for 3 months every time i get off the ship and there is no looking back after that. i Want to explore as many cultures as possible and live like one amongst them. I worked as a host in resto, i part timed as a bartender. I like to do multi tasking. I pursued dance as it is one of my greatest passions.

I am into adventure and have a high adrenaline so far bunjee jumped, scuba dived, and ofcourse greatest adventure of all sailing, i did for so many years. I am a Dreamer and a doer. My dreams are limitless and so does this world.

Right now i made Paris my home for the last 4 years and trying to explore the world from here as much as I can. I do host occasionally depending on the availability

PHILOSOPHY

life is too short to think whats gonna happen tomorrow. live the moment like there is no tomorrow. Its what you make of it.
