My parents named me Robert, that means “bright fame.” It's taken from the old German name Hrodebert. The name is made up of two elements: hrod which means "fame" and beraht which means "bright." But closest people called me Bob. 

​

In October 2024, I reached the age of 23. It truly remarkable as I celebrated my natal day in Dong Thap, Vietnam for the very first time. 

​

I am currently a fourth year college student at University of Mindanao-Tagum College, taking Bachelor of Physical Education.

​

As I mentioned, everything has started in dreaming. I could not imagine how this dream had brought me this far. My twenty one days of stay in Vietnam unlocked all my first's time, fostering camaraderie, quality experience, happiness, and learnings that I will keep for the rest of my life.
