Kick Ass Year for traveling, this 2011!

A lot of people say that 2011 was forgettable. Last night, my friends called it the worst year ever. I say, it's one year i will never forget. 2011 for me was a year of accomplishments and opportunities to prosper and grow as a human being. I've become selfless, eager and determined to make sure the goals i set come into fruition. I've matured as a person and as a  traveler. I couldn't ask for more.

If 2009 was a year of excitement and many firsts and 2010 was a year of dreams coming come true, 2011 was the year where i definitely kicked ass in the travel department. Here's why.

There are good news and there are great news. 

Before the year ends, i've got one big surprise for everyone.

Tonight was the launch of HTC's latest entry level smart phone called HTC Explorer. And i was just officially named its brand ambassador.

To HTC Philippines, thank you for the opportunity to share my greatest passion in life with everyone. As I said earlier tonight, having this phone is like having an adventure all on its own. 

You know the feeling of your first?

You will never forget it.

HTC Explorer, it surely feels like the first time.

As a backpacker, i pack light... but i pack with power.

I've made the right choice!

I will just doze off tonight, and plan my next trip so i can take this buddy of mine right to where it belongs... in the wild.

Cheers!
