I was a programmer lived in Hong Kong for 12 years. My wife and I quitted our job in June 2014 and are traveling the world since then, once on foot, now on bikes. We have walked 1000km in China and 700km in Vietnam, cycled 6000km in Japan and 10000km in Europe. I love writing and she loves drawing, we both love reading, hiking and cycling.
