3 wild facts about me:

  • In 2025 I hosted ≈70 dogs (not at once). I love mammals — especially 🐶 🐴 People literally pay me to pet-sit — so their pets can live out their best moments in life ✨
  • I’ve been to ≈20 countries and lived in 5.5. Korea felt the most exotic/interesting. Indonesia was my favorite.
  • In 2024 I went unusually hard on fitness: daily run/swim/bike for 16 weeks. I ran every day for 3 months, logged 75h vigorous + 208h moderate (≈2.5h/day) activities, lost ≈12 kg, got stronger 💪
