Music, Movies, and Books

I’m not a reader but more on a movie and documentary type of person. I know, contrary to being in the social sciences space.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I believe the most amazing thing I’ve ever been able to do is to practice the art of selflessness fully. To give is to give your life to the fullest! I was able to be the graduation speaker of my university that now has more than one million views.

Teach, Learn, Share

You can check my website (mirusponon.com) to see what I do, but hey, what I’ll share exclusively in this app is how to travel in Southeast Asia and how to get event tickets anywhere in the world for cheap. I can share the everyday struggles yet beauty of Filipinos.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I may not have the most in terms of financial capability, but expect memorable moments, pep talks, wisdom, and most importantly, love in a not-so-cliche way as I have a mission to give at my best.
