Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To connect.
ABOUT ME
Ex-Berliner.
I write Cantopop music. I was a radio DJ, now getting involved with the TV industry. I am also a freelance translator and digital marketer. I also write articles for blogs and magazines.
Alright enough about boring work stuff. Drinking is my number one priority during leisure time. In fact I've been partying so hard now I get to bring guests into clubs for free. That's literally "work hard, play hard" lol.
But I'm much more than a party animal. I enjoy conversations on various subjects with people who like to share themselves. I always want to connect. I like to travel a lot and I've met many good friends along the way. When I can't travel I'll get involved in CS and also drinking with random people at a pub crawl or something. Good things do follow if you're willing to open yourself.
I can keep on spilling magic keywords about myself, although I think you should be the judge of them: open-minded, nice, kind, flexible, good drinker, enjoy companies and surprises...
PHILOSOPHY
Love is all you need. Music is what love sounds like.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Skydiving in Interlaken, Switzerland.
Party inside a former studio where Depeche Mode recorded an album.
Circled Iceland. Dipped in hot spring at -7 degree Celsius and saw Northern Light at the same time. Left Iceland less than 24 hours before a volcano eruption.
Hang out with Hollywood celebrities in LA.
(I do know this column is meant for ONE thing only but I simply can't choose the best one and hey, why should I limit myself of such wonderful times?)
Teach, Learn, Share
I will not hesitate but to introduce you what Hong Kong really is, and how it is different from China. (Yes please don't call me Chinese, I'm a Hong Kongese.) I can share my experiences in music making. I can also teach you some basic Cantonese too.

First we'll share a great talk. Then we'll share a great time.
