About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Go with the wind

ABOUT ME

I studied Physics in University and now working as an engineer in X-ray industry. But my "title" will be changed very soon! :)
I'm open-minded, active. Always like to learn new things. and eager to different cultural exposure, although i study science. that's why I like travelling so much too ~~

PHILOSOPHY

Experience life, appreciate life, dont get bogged down with wasting it on things you dont enjoy, try new things and see how they go :)

my favourite quotations (sorry some of them are in Chinese! :P):
不斷挑戰, 世界總會讓步 (英國小說家)

我最害怕的一件事, 就是我所受的痛苦分文不值 (俄羅斯作家)

Tomorrow is another day < Gone with the Wind >

我不是失敗了一千多次, 只是發現了一次多次不能成功製造燈泡的方法 (愛迪生)

It doesn't matter where you come; it does matter where you'll go

Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen (Winston Churchill)

你若不想做,會找到一個藉口;你若想做,會找到一個方法---阿拉伯諺

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My apartment in Hong Kong is small. But once I come back from California, I'll provide couch. This website and its concept are amazing for cultural exchange and I will surely promote it as much as I can to my friends and relatives

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sitting at the pilot seat and drive the aeroplane!
Skydive in the morning, bungee in the afternoon, then diving in the Great Barrier Reef on the following day!

Teach, Learn, Share

obviously far more things to learn than to teach!
Sharing can be anything as small as my daily habits or as big as my dreams / life goals!
