A native of the Philippines, Noel Cabacungan loves to drive his two kids nuts. Between the ten or so months that he has to work 5,344 miles away from them, he spends most of his free time browsing the internet (planning for the next adventure), having short trips or exploring places nearby. Otherwise, he travels back to Philippines to join his two kids in plotting for world domination.

He loves noodles of all kinds and currently writes on his blog, Ten Thousand Strangers.
