HI, I'M GUS!
Part-Time Traveller, Full-Time Lawyer
Hi, I’m Gus! A 1991-born, qualified lawyer and travel addict originally from Malaysian Borneo city of Kuching. I speak 5 languages - English, Malay, Mandarin, Iban and basic Thai.
Having practiced law for 3 years in Kuala Lumpur, I quit my job as a practising lawyer and moved to the Philippines' capital of Manila with my partner since January 2020. Currently, I am enjoying my life as an expatriate and joining in-house legal team in one of the MNCs in Metro Manila.
Together with my partner, I have been travelling extensively from within Southeast Asia, East Asia all the way to South Asia. I believe Asia is the most diverse and interesting part of the world that is waiting for us to explore and discover. My 2020/2021 bucket list destinations are Oman, Sri Lanka, Kyrgyzstan, Nepal, West Australia and Italy.
I believe in slower-paced yet more in-depth explorations. For me, when your goal is to visit every country in the world, you are not really travelling as your perspectives are confined within the surface of the destinations. Hence, I travel one place at a time.
All of these elements brought me to start The Part-Time Traveller. If you are looking for tips, insights and itinerary suggestions to make your next adventures happen, you have come to the right place!
