About myself, I love to learn different cultures, cuisines, reading and art. I like animals and interested in learning more about gardening and agriculture.
I am currently writing a novel call "Mark of Courage: The Great Distance".
I also made several paintings of the fjords in Faroe Islands between 2022 to 2023.
I graduated from Texas in USA in May 2018. Im doing my Master degree in France now.
Volunteer experience:
When I was volunteering in Australia in May 2019, I helped my host in cleaning the house, wiping the windows, help her to rearrange her art room. She brought me to the blue mountains, and I love spending time with her in watching movies and video clips.
In New Zealand, I once worked in a vegan farm ( I am not vegan, but just experiencing different perspective) , pulling out weeds, gardening. In another family in Christchurch, the host family brought me to their parents home, and to the mountains, it is very interesting to experience the local culture. Another host in Auckland gave me the opportunity to check out retiring lifestyle, joining local clubs, gathering, and we did a lot of talking. There, I have a chance to meet a Japanese friend who tells me about her world travelling experience.
In 2022, on Faroe Islands, the volunteering experience was extraordinary, I cooked her and her family dinner everyday. I cooked local fish soup, Middle Eastern food, burger, Asian cusine, and many more. The family drove and brought me to see all the breath-taking sceneries. I told the host I love painting and art, then she drove me to the town to get high quality paint, brush and canvas. After this trip, I am inspired to learn Danish, continue to paint, and started to write novel again.Interests
