About Me

Hi! I am Aaron and I am a traveller. I love meeting people - especially interesting people. I started CS because my friends do it and I find it very great. Meeting up with travellers around the world, sharing every bits and pieces about travelling together is simply amazing.

I am a university student studying at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. I have previously studied in the UK for a year.
I am also a scout. I enjoy hiking, camping, kayaking and so on... basically all types of outdoor activities.
