About Me

CURRENT MISSION

country fair - Eugene , Oregon, USA

ABOUT ME

I am an instructor in art & design at a state university in Chiangmai, in northern Thailand. I am a mixed of everything. My father is Chinese, my mother is Thai. I studied at Catholic school and Buddhist High school and have been working together with Larry, who is Jewish, for five years.
I am pretty open to everything, I love antiques as much as I love gadgets. I am a children book's illustrator, but also a big fan of crime series. I love to cook as much as I love to eat. I can have rice for a meal and have cake for dessert. I love Thai tea but can't start the day without coffee. I have tons of (Thai) books and loads of movies.
I met so many people from every part of the world and I think it's wonderful to hear their stories.
When I travel there are two things I can't live without: my camera & my IPAD. I really enjoy looking at the pictures I took and have a clear memory of my experiences.

PHILOSOPHY

Every great journey starts with a single step.
