Art The Traveller

Apart from music, Art has a strong passion for travel.

“Travel frees my mind. I can have a lot more ideas to write songs from seeing a broader world. I also learned a lot of local music genres while travelling through cultural exchange programs and had a chance to perform in some countries.”

Art has been selected for several international/cultural exchange programs and awarded scholarships. Therefore, he has been traveling extensively throughout the world.

“I've learned how to accept and deal with differences in people. This is really important. Learning how to accept their differences made me understand them and their cultures better and with this understanding, conflicts decrease. Also, I’ve been developed to be adaptive to change.”

Art’s style of travel is Budget Travel. He always plans his own itineraries, stays in budgeted place, and goes to places where local people go, not like tourists. He loves to try local food, talk to local people, and find inspirations for his music!
