Description
Hi there, My name is Jack. Originally from Hong Kong. A very crowded and hectic city in Asia. On 2016, I decided to make a change and moved to New Zealand. In there, I fell in love with the nature and the people in there. I am social work background and work in health and social care industry in New Zealand and I love it!
I am especially interested in sustainable living, off-grid life style, biodynamic and organic farming. I studied Anthroposophy for a year and love the concept of looking after one's body-soul-spirit.
I renovated my house in New Zealand from a pretty rough condition to a place I called home. So I am confident to handle some handy tools. Also, I love gardening and planting veges and trees. Love to be part of any team to build something amazing!
I have good amount of volunteering experience around the world. I was in Borneo for 3 months to help locals build a dam back in 2013. On 2016 I was doing wwoffing in New Zealand and helped in a few organic and lifestyle farm.
I speak fluent English and Chinese, learning French and German (Very very basic). If you want to learn some Chinese, I am more that happy to teach some lessons.Interests

Hi there, my name is Jack. Originally from Hong Kong, a small city with vibrant energy and glamorous city life. At the same time, very highly populated and fast paced, I was a social worker back in Hong Kong, now I am working in health and social care industry in New Zealand.
I went to New Zealand as working holiday on 2016. After traveled in the insanely beautiful country and I fell in love with New Zealand. I decided to stay here and Vola! I am now living in New Zealand for over 6 years.
I decided to start my voyage again and this time I hope to travel as many country as I can in Europe. I am excited to see all the culture, the landscape, the cuisine and most importantly, the people.
In terms of skills, I renovated my house from pretty rough condition to a place I called home, so I am quite confident to use some handy tools and help with some renovation projects.
I love gardening and talk about creative idea on how to make your garden look fantastic! I am working in a company which practice biodynamic farming and Steiner's studies. So I can also help in garden project/lifestyle farm setup.
I travel a bit and I love nature and hiking. I am not fussy about where I sleep and okay with vegetarian living. I play a little bit of guitar, and love a good bon fire night! Also I'm super smiley, even when it is raining.
Look forward to meet some amazing people around the world! :-)Age
