Ari may be a bit faint-hearted about cliff-jumping in Boracay or sampling fertilised duck eggs in Vietnam, but he throws himself into it anyway, ready to turn mishaps into stories. New experiences get him every time – he even shed a tear touching the pyramids of Giza and spotting kangaroos (which he later ate, guilt and all).
From late-night motorbike rides through Thailand’s jungles to crashing in a $1 bed in Cambodia, he’s always up for more, yet finds his true inspiration back home in Indonesian Borneo, doodling and butchering languages on Duolingo.
