One of my favorite things in life is travel. I have tried to document stories of every place I visit. Here's my online photo album.

China

I was born in Hangzhou, the most beautiful city in China. I grew up by the West Lake which is embedded in the heart of the city. Its tranquility and elegance have captured hundreds of thousands of tourists every year. I spent most my childhood in the parks and forests around the lake, climbing trees, mountains, and pagodas. Every now and then I still find myself reminiscing about my early years at the lake.

Ireland

When I was old enough for college, I packed my bags and adventured outside of China to study psychology in Dublin, Ireland. Alone in a foreign country, I learned to live on my own, and more importantly, I discovered what I really care about and what I want to do in life. During the years in Dublin, I was fortunate to live in a house by the water overlooking the beach of the Irish sea. One of my favorite things about being in Dublin, aside from drinking, was that it was very easy to travel to other parts of Europe, of which I took full advantage.

U.S.

One of the best decisions I ever made was coming to Princeton for graduate school. The town is small but very pleasant. It has a disproportionately large amount of sushi restaurants and ice cream shops. My favorites include Sakura Express, Ajihei, Shanghai Park , Masala Grill, Bent Spoon, Halo Pub, and Small World. Fueled by these delicious food, I spend a lot time of working out, and I'm the bench press champion and broke the record for female graduate students at Princeton.
