01About
HKU · Pok Fu Lam★
Between English, Spanish and Cantonese,
a heartbeat tied to a team across the ocean.
I studied languages from undergrad to grad school, and in 2025 I finished my MA in English Studies at the University of Hong Kong. I’m still on the island — writing a little, shooting a little, slowly making life wider.
Spanish is my second language. The reason I started is simple: I wanted to thank Messi in a language he understands — “¡Gracias, capitán!” — and to really hear what eleven thousand voices sing inside La Bombonera.
ENFP energy goes to football, friends and the camera. I post occasionally on Xiaohongshu, and drop a few half-sentences on Instagram from time to time.

02The GOAT
Lionel · Andrés · Messi
He isn’t one of the greatest.
He is The GOAT.
Almost twenty years of watching football, and the one thing I’m sure of: if football is a language, he’s the poet of it. Eight Ballons d’Or, a World Cup, Copa América, Champions Leagues, Trebles — the numbers are only the footnote. The real footnote is every late night he made a small-town boy believe gentle people can be kings too.

03Obsessions
Blue rooms
I keep coming back to places that hum in blue.
Español
“Aprender un idioma es ganar una segunda alma.”
— To learn a language is to win a second soul.
Camera
A handful of instax —
life deserves to be looked at slowly.

Live
Believe in LOVE.
A concert crowd, strangers holding each other. The world is still worth it.

Street
The world is still good after all.
A stranger glanced at me on a street corner and smiled.

Fútbol
I’ll always support Chinese football.
And the No. 10 in Argentina. Two things, for life.
