World Tour Completed, 71 Countries Visited, Media Appearances, Currently Embarking on World Tour 2nd Round

At 38, I quit my job and embarked on a journey. At the time, I didn’t have a strong motivation or purpose. But the fear of living a life without leaving any mark or accomplishing anything weighed heavily on me. While traveling, I continued my long-standing passion for karate by visiting dojos, and stayed with host families, connecting with people from all around the world. What awaited me ahead were worlds and futures I never knew existed.
