About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Connecting different people and ideas and Changing the world by social entrepreneurship
ABOUT ME
I am a dream chaser. I used to dream to travel around the world and my first move was to backpack to India when I was 20, for 2 months. I realised traveling opens my eyes, mind and soul. I looked at the poverty and I confirmed to myself, I want to make a difference, which became my second dream.
I am from Hong Kong, a real global capitalistic city in fast growing Asia, used to be managed by London and now Beijing. I am always interested in politics and some free time I have ideas how creative mobile apps can help people's demonstration in a more powerful way. But I wasn't into finance at all. My family has a small retail business selling dry seafood and I have my own small enterprise doing connecting people to know the world. My part time is to teach in university about young social entrepreneurship.
I once dreamt to get in the best big corporation and earn and have a stable life. I got in Google but that wasn't satisfying for my deepest desire, something I really want to experience and leave for the next generations before I die. Then I used the next 5 years to found my enterprise (www.interculturaleducation.asia) and I still part time helping it grow.
Anyway, I traveled and lived in more than 25 countries, if you happened to be from one of these (US, UK, France, Germany, Austria, Russia, Ukraine, Romania, Bulgaria, Greece, Macedonia, Serbia, Hungary, Finland, Sweden, Norway, India, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Korea, Japan, China, Taiwan), I am happy to share more!
I am social person, while I love reading as well. I love to think and create ideas to solve problems, and I am good at speaking to the public, here is a talk I shared, a funny one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ZIUiX10vE8
I am going on my third big dream: let people transfer their warm hearted caring to loved one through giving Chinese traditional healthy products.Anyway, long story, and most non-Chinese would be shocked about it. It is a very Chinese thing at the moment. haha.
PHILOSOPHY
Learn as if you will live forever, Live as if you will die tomorrow.
