About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learn to swim (WIP..).. Get back in shape!

ABOUT ME

Without a doubt, travelling is super addicting.. and there's no cure.. so to temporary relieve the addiction, I have to travel once in a while

I am generally a goof ball and people often describe me as an energizer bunny on red bull. Also, many have questioned whether Earth is my motherland....

When I am back home,I am more matured and act more boring/professional.. I guess only traveling to exotic strange places bring out the fun side of me

PHILOSOPHY

Do as much as you can before you die because everything is over when your time comes.

If your actions cause pain for others, don't do it... unless the other happens to be a horrible person.. hehe

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived in Antarctica for 5 months...

During Beijing Summer Olympics, My friends and I (five of us) dressed up as the five rings of Olympic at the opening day and parade through the most popular area in Beijing (Wang Fu Jing) to show our love for the game! It was insane and fun! We felt like celebrities because tons of ppl ask to take pictures with us and we were interviewed multiple times.. hehe :)

Oh, as mentioned, I love doing spontaneous things.. and ones I have done are Slow Mo at Harrod, No Pants Subway Ride, MP3 experiment, and dance/riding a horse stick through NYC. :)

I do not know how to swim but I have done many things related to water - Scuba Diving, Snorkeling, parasailing, banana boat, water skiing, riding a jet ski...

Sailing down the Danou River in Serbia on a home build boat was really awesome!

I recently skydived with my dad! and the amazing part of it is once again my DAD skydived with me!!! haha

Teach, Learn, Share

I guess my background is pretty interesting.. so hopefully we could all learn from each other :)
