I am a retired scientist, also a volunteer HKHM hike leader, a bamboo scaffolding instructor, a scuba diver, a macro photographer (insects and underwater), an amateur naturalist, a freelance ecotourism/neighborhood tour guide, an animal activist, a writer and a mentor. I do everything with passion and doing all of these things make me happy. I don’t feel burnt out or tired as I follow my heart and my work is a source of joy. My passions have allowed me to develop a meaningful life.
