ABOUT ME

A keen traveller craving for cultural heritage tours and local exposure. I'm open-minded, eagar to learn new things. I mostly travel alone and love to talk to the locals who always give me newperspectives and insights. I hope to learn a few more languages so that I can have more cultural exchange with people from all around the world.

PHILOSOPHY

As an ancient Chinese phrase says, "Travelling a thousand miles is better than reading a thousand books"

Make the best of my life. If god give me a lemon, I make lemonade.

Music, Movies, and Books

"Amelie" by Audrey Tautou. I just love her character in the film, so adorable:]

I love music of different styles esp Jazz and Spanish guitars with castanets, also enjoy watching ballet and flamenco too.

One recent book I randomly picked from a bookstore which I quite like:
"La Seduction. How the French play the game of life" by Elaine-Sciolino

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Going on a 3-day camping in the desert of inner mongolia. And the most striking moment was to catch the sunrise in a freezing dawn over there.

More to name, the moment when I finished another 3-day hiking in nepal, that was just amazing. So accomplished! And the mountain view of Himalayas was all beyond words

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my amazing journey being a hongkongese living and studing in Beijing for a couple of years and how I witness the rapid change of this country.

Also I can cook with the best passion.
