  • Description

    Hello, I’m Wing.
    I was born in China and have been working in the field of education for many years. I started as an outdoor and nature education teacher, then moved on to teaching reading and critical thinking. Later, I trained in Nonviolent Communication and became a certified facilitator. I love working and communicating with both children and adults—creating spaces where people can think, feel, and connect.

    In my free time, I surf by the sea, enjoy outdoor adventures, and perform as an amateur theatre actor. Over the years, I’ve become more certain that I want a sustainable lifestyle—one that’s closely connected to nature, creativity, and community.

    That’s why I began this journey: to learn how people in different countries and regions build loving, positive, and sustainable communities, and to bring those insights back to my daily life, my students, my family, and my friends.

    I have rich outdoor experience, strong hands-on skills, and a habit of regular physical training. I’m looking forward to joining a sincere and open community where I can learn, share, and keep exploring.
