Dear Steemians,
Who Am I ?_?
My name is Ray. I come from Hong Kong and studying Master of Computer Science in United Kingdom for now. During the research of my blockchain dissertation, I found Steemit and now I am here!!!
This photo is taken from my Les Arcs skiing trip now! As I read a lot of steemians' introduction, they just simply take a verification photo in their rooms or even without a verified photo. So I want to try something new, special and creative. Please comment to let me know if you like it or not.
I am graduated from Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) in computer science. It is a great university near the clear water bay with beautiful sea view.
This is my graduation photo. I rode up the mountain (Fei Ngo shan) to school for taking this photo.
For now, I am studying in bath, UK.
This is one of the tourist spot in Bath --The Royal Cresent
I think all of you click into this post is not expected to see my boring education. Do you? Let's talk about my interest.
I love travelling, adventures, outdoor activities and doing crazy things. And I will share all my crazy stories at steemit with you all.
What will I share?_?
Cycling Trips
The craziest thing in my life is the cycling trip from chengdu to lhasa. It took me a month to cycle 2200km. It is the most exciting, amazing, challenging and beautiful trip that i have ever had. I need to climb countless of mountains from 600m to 5000m high, cycle in snow, rain, hail and mud. No matter how hard is it, it worths. Those are the hightlighted photos and i will share more with detailed desciption and useful information in my blog.
My cycling team!!!
This photo is taken from the Tung Tat Shan(東達山) which is 5000m high covered with snow.
This photo is taken from a place called Tong Mai(通麥天險) which is the most dangerous road in my trip. Every year, there will be some cyclist die here and can't return home.
This photo is taken before I going down the hill which called Nujiang 72 turns (怒江72拐). It got this name becauese there are 72 turns when going down and there are no barriers. If you ride too fast, you are going off the cliff and rise up to heaven.
Finally, this is the destination -- The Potala Palace (布達拉宮). You can't imagine how exciting it was when I eventually finished the whole trip.
Before that, i cycled around Taiwan and got on the highest point in Taiwan by bike. Comparing to the tibet trip, it is less dangerous and more relaxing. Taiwan is a very beautiful place in terms of culture, people and scenery. I have travelled 90% of the places in Taiwan and of course i will share with you all in my blog also.
I am riding up to the highest point.
This is from the highest point in Taiwan -- WuLing. It is 3275m high.
Scuba Diving Trips
What's more? I am also an advanced open water diver and went to sabah and phillipines to dive. These two places are diving paradise and definitely worth going if you love scuba diving.
This photo is taken from Semporna which is a diving heaven in Sabah. A lot of people go here in order to go to sipadan. And I had my first dive here.
I took this photo when I was doing wreck diving in the Puerto Galera and I got my Advanced diving certificate here.
Skiing / Snowboarding Trips
Moreover, i am a skier and snowboarder too. I have been to Beijing, Japan and Glasgow for snowsports activities. And for now i am in Les Arcs ski resort.
This is from Japan Gala Yuzawa where my first ski take place in.
This is from BeiJing -- the cheapest place to ski.
Do you know you can ski in Glasgow? Most of my Uk classmates don't know that.
Budget Travelling Trips
I am also a backpacker and budget traveller. I travelled to india, vietnam, uk, france, belgium, netherlands and luxembourg.
This is the Taj Mahal -- everyone knows what is it but don't know where is it. It is in Agra.
Fansipan -- the highest point from Indochina(Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia). But I see nothing here. Sosad.
My first rock climbing experience -- snowdonia.
Must see point in Paris -- The night view eiffel tower. Took it with gopro.
A selfie with the louvre. [Selfie stick is important when travelling alone]
Bruges, Belgium the Venice of the North. You must go here if you travel to Belgium.
Luxembourg -- The castle city.
Hong Kong Culture & Secret Spots
Apart from travelling, i will also introduce my home city -- hong kong. I will share her cultures, news, and some secret spots that even hong kong people have not been to. It is a great opportunity for you to know more about hong kong.
One of the secret spot in Hong Kong. The Tiger Roar Stone River (虎吼石河) which is located in the Lantau Island near the Lantau Peak.
Kayaking in Hong Kong -- Sea Hole in Wang Chau (橫洲角洞)
Sheug Luk Stream(雙鹿石澗). There are tremendous stream in Hong Kong that is very beautiful.
Kai Keung Leung(雞公嶺) -- In Hong Kong, it is normal that you can both see the mountain and the city at the same time.
Cycling to the highest mountain in Hong Kong -- Tai Mo Shan(大帽山)
