Über mich
I was travelling in Asia and Europe for a total of four months this year. During the time I visited Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Netherlands, France, Spain, UK, Austria, Georgia, Poland and Germany :) I never regretted embarking on this journey!
I started my study in grad school in September. During this winter break, I'm finishing my little travel journal for the trip I had in 2019.
I'd love to share stories about my travel and anything I know. If you’re interested in where I come from (Hong Kong), I would be more than happy to share with you too.
I love ...
Nature
Exploring different cultures and talking to people
Art, movies & books
Interesting history and politics
Yoga & Spirituality
Good fooood
Walking around!
Apart from this trip, my most unforgettable travel experiences are:
1. Trekking off the beaten track away from the touristy pavement on the mountains of Xinjiang, and finally get to see the spectacular Kanas Lake.
2. Riding the first ebike of my life in Bagan, Myanmar and nearly got a car crash; but lucky enough to survive and climb the ancient temples.
3. Reading a good book in Angkor Wat, spending a half day doing this in the temple ( can tell you what that book is if you are interested)
I have been hosted once in Paris in March 2019.
(English translation):
‘I hosted Karen for 2 days. She is a great girl and we got along well. Would hope to host her again.”
My host in Poland also left my a positive reference :) you may check it out.
And : NO to hook-ups. Yes to cultural exchange. Thanks for noting :)

I am quite active in joining community projects in HK, including those related to urban renewal, migrant workers, gender equality, and green movements. If you are interested in knowing more about the current political situation in HK, I am more than happy to tell you more.
