Road Trip
I enjoy road-trip as it's a great way to experience local customs. The spectacular landscape reminds me of how great our Creator is. One of my dreams is to visit all the 59 national parks in the US. I have visited 20 national parks already and am looking forward to my next journey. Here is a list of the national parks I've visited

Arches - Utah
Bryce Canyon - Utah (Favourite!)
Canyonlands - Utah
Capitol Reef - Utah
Crater Lake - Oregon
Everglades - Florida
Grand Canyon - Arizona
Grand Teton - Wyoming
Great Sand Dunes - Colorado
Great Smoky Mountains - North Carolina, Tennessee
Joshua Tree - California
Kings Canyon - California
Mesa Verde - Colorado
Mount Rainier - Washington
North Cascades - Washington
Olympic - Washington
Sequoia - California
Shenandoah - Virginia
Yellowstone - Wyoming, Montana, Idaho
Yosemite - California
Zion - Utah

Painting
I spent 6 years learning figure sketch, traditional Chinese painting, and Gongbi, specialized in Bird-and-flower painting. Through painting, I find inner peace. These days I enjoy drawing some anime characters for fun. Check them out.

Activities
I regularly engage in hiking, paddleboarding, and snowboarding. If you're in Seattle and enjoy outdoor activities, feel free to contact me.

Big fan of Rubik's Cube
4x4x4
5x5x5

Games
I'll call the following games Masterpiece because they change my perspective somehow.

AIR - VisualArt's
Portal - Valve
To the moon - Freebird Games

Music
Just hit any of these songs and let it play ...

The Police - Every Breath You Take
Radiohead - No Surprises
Radiohead - Creep (Korn Cover)
Coldplay - Fix You
宋冬野 - 莉莉安
李志 - 热河路

The Mighty
Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.

1 Peter 5: 6-7
