Overview
About Me
I am a very open-hearted person. Once I've heard a quote that says, "To have a warm heart in this cruel society is not weak, it's courageous."
Growing up both in China and Belgium, brought up by both the Western and the Eastern way, I have learnt to rise beyond the confinement of any stand-alone frames of thinking. From a young age, I have been fascinated by every authentic traditional culture around the world, their history, cuisine, rituals, philosophy…
Besides mountains and animals, I love meeting people who are passionate, curious, and compassionate, people who have stories.
