In my free time, I take part in Chinese martial arts such as Bagua Tai-chi and Qi-gong, which are native to the Wudang Mountains of China. The sweetheart of my life, my lovely border collie Lara, also takes up much of my attention. I also love water sports such as yacht sailing and wave surfing and used to actually work as an instructor for white water kayaking. I am a very outdoor person, and I love hiking. I also try to have a healthy and green lifestyle, and I am very knowledgeable on many animals and plants. I am also very interested in the arts, and have painted several street murals before. I am also an aspiring amateur actor and have been in some TV shows. I am always working to improve my English by reading classic books, and I am always trying to learn more of the world around me, especially with different cultures and lifestyles.
