Alejandro Lau Profile
Zhuangzi said: "Life has a limit but knowledge hasn't. It's exhausting to chase limitless knowledge within limited time."
Though sometimes feeling very tired, I'm still trying to get to more WHSs. I only visit cultural / mixed WHSs in purpose (if natural WHSs are not that far from the route, why not having a look?) because in my opinion human beings are the most diverse to get to know.
I'm a polyglot with 6 languages fluently spoken and 10+ languages for basic conversation. Speaking local languages make me go deeper into local culture.
Current mission:
2024-2025 Latin America
2019-ongoing China
Past:
2023-2024 SE Asia
2023 Kazakhstan / Uzbekistan
