What is an ordinary moment in your life that brings you joy?
Seeing my flowers bloom or new growth/leaves on my plants.
What do you most like to do to unwind?
I like to cook or bake while listening to a podcast or a good playlist.
What has been your favorite work or personal project so far?
My new place has a small backyard and lots of sunlight so I have been able to invest my time into houseplants keeping/gardening. So far, I have cultivated a small garden with a few veggies and herbs. I also love 鈥渞escuing鈥 sad houseplants from the grocery/big box store (or I鈥檇 like to call them 鈥減lant shelters鈥) and bringing them back to life.
What鈥檚 something most people don鈥檛 know about you?
I am a self-taught calligraphy artist.
One thing you鈥檙e willing to spend way too much on...
Anything for my dog, Chester. He is very spoiled.
Which TV show do you never miss?
Kim鈥檚 Convenience is my go-to comfort show. It鈥檚 about a lovely Korean family that runs a small convenience store in Canada. Highly recommend it!
