Joshua Berida

Joshua didn't plan on becoming a writer as either a hobby or profession. He started out in sales but found out that he prefers writing. His journey began in the Wild West of search engine optimization and content writing for various clients and websites. He has managed to mix writing about various topics related to his work but finds joy in creating travel features and literature. This led to the creation of his own website www.thewanderingjuan.net. He publishes guides and stories about the adventures he has been on around the Philippines and the rest of the world. His first international trip as an adult was to Kota Kinabalu in Malaysia where he almost missed his flight and was one of the last passengers to board the airplane.
