Beside teaching, doing research and talking to students, which I all love dearly, I do have a life beyond Edmunds and Claremont.

I love reading, watching movies -- especially documentaries -- cooking, gardening, and traveling.

Cooking: I try all kinds of cuisines. My focus is usually on healthy diet and using local ingredients, but sometimes, I may spend some extra efforts on the presentation.

Gardening: I enjoy gardening. It is a form of meditation for me to work in the garden early in the morning or after work. I am a strong believer of plant native, as a form of environmental conservation. In summer 2016, my husband and I transferred our lawn into a rock garden. In this process, we moved 30+ tons of rocks ourselves.

Traveling: We enjoy traveling and we LOVE national parks , and world heritage sites . Every year, we visit a few places; some we have been to many times. Every year, we visit a few places -- some we have been to many times. As a proper computer scientist, I maintain an excel file recording which parks/sites we have visited, and more importantly, a bucket list. You can find a journal of our adventures here.
