About Me

10 Fun Facts:

1. I did my first bungee jump and found out about a lethal accident on the same spot one week before

2. The most relaxing thing I did on my solo travel in Northern Thailand is to bath in a free local hot spring with anther German solo traveller I met in a bus terminal

3. I scuba-dived two times in Okinawa, Japan without a diving license

4. The quietest place I have explored is the Wilderness where there was nothing but only an elephant eating branches

5. I booked only the hostel for the first night nearby downtown Joburg in a spontaneous trip to South Africa, then found out its downtown has fallen to the most dangerous area of the City

6. I changed my plan and followed the lady I met on plane and her team to a voluntary visit to a village school

7. I acted as a rapist every time in the Ghana primary school sexual education tour and the students were very excited

8. I by mistake book a ticket to Ching Rai instead of Ching Mai in Thailand, which eventually I fought so hard to get on a coach travelling 200km all the way back to run the Marathon

9. I had a 3D pink Barbie Cake, birthday song sang by over 100 people and a French Kiss from a guy in front of the crowd as a ‘trio surprise’ on my 21st birthday

10. While I was finishing up my very last 400m in a half marathon back inside the sports ground, the seam on my shorts was split

2 of the above are fake. Let you know which are the 2 when we meet!

I am:
- a Hong Kong native
- a sincere, easy-going and nature-loving introvert who enjoy deep conversations
- serious at work yet spontaneous when travelling
- a graduate from the University of Hong Kong striving to become a School Psychologist
- a licensed nutritionist
- a hobby chef passionate in western cuisine and baking
- an INFP in MBTI; a type 4/6 in Enneagram
- a brother having 2 younger sisters
- a son raised up by a single mum
- a Christian got lost in the mist yet walking along with the light on my path

Philosophy: Life is a Marathon - keep going and keep moving.
