- In Toronto, in case it doesn't show. Technically I am Mongolian haha.
DONT reach out to me here. Find me in *al ternative way*. ;)

My website: www.sanlniyap.com
I write blogs sometimes (in multiple languages and hope to have more). Welcome to drop by.

I was trained as an engineer, ended up working in financial industry as a risk manager. I guess at a certain level I am a born risk manager. No risk no growth! You need to take chance to live a full life, but manage it carefully!
I am INTJ overall according to MBTI (here to change the world : P ), but I can be E sometimes (I like to connect with people), also my F is improving.

Curiosity leads me to everywhere I think of. I have passion to explore myself by trying different things.
I like to go hiking, research about certain topics through reading and discussing.
Feminist. I am friendly with LGBTQ.
I started to think what else I can do to make a better difference to things around me.
I teach Mandarin for fun, as it's a perfect way of cultural exchange, and a way of increasing self-awareness.
Where am I from?

I believe that people don't always belong to the culture/place they grow up. I wasn't well fit in growing up.
I am searching for the home of my heart. Maybe it could be a place I like, a culture that fits me, or person(s) I fall in love with. But let's be realistic. There is no perfect but good enough.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I have been knowing it as a teenager back then when it was still a NGO, and started to use it from 2011 when I moved around or travelled. The spirit of it has been a part of me throughout the years and continues.

What if we always treat the place we live as a travel destination, and the places we travel as our local? Everything is going to be different.
Travel like a local, live like a traveller. :)

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

That I keep on reaching next level of stages that I had never imagined they would happen to me.
Right things come at right time.
A recent one I can think of is that I quit my job and started a one-way solo trip without plan or knowing where I will be settled, to conquer the insecurity I have accumulated in the years in HK, train my flexibility and find my spirit back. I revived faster than I expected with a happy ending in Canada, but I decide this will just be the beginning of an even bigger adventure. The story continues..
