About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Do some goodness on Earth and have some fun while I'm at it. Explore the world and experience endless cultures.

ABOUT ME
Fuffly. Curious. Love to integrate and understand new cultures.
I enjoy traveling, having a great conversation, trying new things, and to learn learn learn.

Other than caring about the human kind, I also care very much for the environment. Without such a great planet to live on, how could we share all these great experiences?

Born in Hong Kong, raised in Montreal. Spent a summer fruit picking in British-Columbia living in a tent. Spent another summer in Alberta fishing for the government and living at the trailer park. Spent a winter in Lund, Sweden doing a study semester abroad. Spent a summer working as a camp coordinator in Hong Kong. Lived in Yellowknife (North of 60 in Canada) for the past few years. And now, back to a big city, in Toronto.

PHILOSOPHY
I try to appreciate everything and every moment that I have. Live life to the fullest without regrets and worries! I also very much believe in being happy as a daily objective.

Music, Movies, and Books

Last book, a non-fiction by Charles Montgomery: Happy City
Last show: Transmigration Kaha:Wi an Aboriginal Dance Performance
Movies, I'm quite the fan of documentaries.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I performed in concerts with my former youth orchestra in many European countries. Although the repertoire stayed similar, the feeling was different every time. Playing in European churches was an unforgettable experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

I've lived with people from 8 different nationalities under one roof! It was so beautiful to live in harmony with so many different cultures. Priceless :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I live in Northern Canada, a place where most Canadians have not been to or even consider going. It's a unique place with lots of stories to share.
