My Little Hobbies

Our cat, Peach:
Peach was born in June 7, 2022 and she came to our home in September.

Badminton:
I started competing again in 2023 after a four-year break. And I just won a Men's single medal in the Chicago Open 2023!

Climbing:
The season is about to start, so I plan to return to my outdoor projects.
