I feel at home travelling in Asia. As I am half-Asian myself, I blend in well and am mostly accepted by the locals as one of them. One of my fondest travel memories is a boat trip in Myanmar: watching the scenery go by was such a peaceful experience. Europe never fails to fascinate me – I absolutely love art and architecture. Wherever I go, I spend days just walking around, and always have a sketchbook with me to capture my surroundings. Sometimes I hop on a train to visit a museum or a pretty city in Switzerland.
