Description
Nice to meet you :) I'm a published author, translator, editor from Hong Kong. I've visited various places in Asia and Europe as a solo traveller, and I'm looking for new adventures as a workawayer.
I love the arts, spending time in nature and with animals, and connecting with people from different backgrounds and regions. Learning about different cultures and ways of life is a passion of mine. I'm independent and laid-back since I've lived and travelled alone for two decades.
For my future workaways, I'd welcome a mix of community and alone time for self-reflection. I'm a tidy guest with good house-cleaning skills. I was a longtime cat parent and have done petsitting. Happy to stay in both cities and the countryside.Interests
