About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Appreciate the world and meet cool people

ABOUT ME

An English and History teacher in a secondary school in Hong Kong. Love reading and playing tennis/squash. Love most genres of music. Went on an exchange semester in Oslo before.

Realistic dreamer. Dare to dream. Once the click is found, will work hard for it.

Love music. Listen to varied genres. Like soulful voices the best. Dream that one day would become a performer on the street.

Love traveling. Hope to experience a local's life and know about the history of the place. Especially like meeting new friends, coz I believe our social circles limit our choices of friends and two people who may go along very well just lack an opportunity to meet. Traveling also presents myself chances to reflect and to challenge myself.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is short, but we work hard to make our dreams come into our lives.
