  • More details about your skills

    This is a big question and I do not know where to start.

    I will want to describe myself as an all-round person. I do not excel at things in many domains, but I always have the will to try new things (and that is how you learn and find happiness in life. Sometimes. Haha).

    Well I have some experience working in farm before. I helped a Norwegian farmer to grow peas and feed hens. And I helped a farmer in Japan to grow and harvest sweet potatoes (this vegetable is very popular there).

    I spent nearly two months in Norway, sailing with a group of inspiring people and picking rubbish along the west coastline. Through that experience, I recognized the challenging environmental issue we are facing on the planet and learnt to make good bread (important!).

    I am coming from an educational background in exercise science, and have been working as a strength and conditioning coach in Melbourne. I also used this 'expertise' (I do not like this word) to help residents from Fukushima be more active while they were trying to rebuild their community after the earthquake in 2011.
