About Me

ABOUT ME

Currently a master student in Global Health from the States. My thoughts are mostly influenced by the Chinese and American culture. But you see the word "Global" in my field, this means I love to travel and try my best to see a little more of the world.

PHILOSOPHY

Yeah, life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're going to get...But it's CHOCOLATE, so just eat and enjoy the moment --:D

Teach, Learn, Share

I always enjoy being serious and funny the same time. I am serious about our conversation, but this doesn't mean I will fight you if you think nuclear war can be exciting (maybe we are just not going to be friends haha :P). To me it's fun to hear and share different stories.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Anything?! I guess it depends more on the conversation. I am open to most of the things we talk but maybe not too dark because i will be scared lol.

Bosnia and Herzegovina, Canada, Croatia, India, Japan, Kenya, Mexico, Panama, Peru, Serbia, Tanzania, United Kingdom
