A SHORT-ISH INTRO TO THE GIRL BEHIND THE BLOG

hello, i’m chloe, a seventeen-year-old student from hong kong in my sixth year of secondary school (equivalent to high school senior year) with a tremendous love for books, marshmallows, and pudding. ♡ i enjoy studying calculus (although i utterly suck at it), visiting new countries, messing around with 35mm film, and trying my hand at all kinds of art and design.

being asian myself, i love, looove, love seeing asians represented in literature, in particular middle grade and young adult novels. i’m also a huge fan of fluffy romances, especially those set in foreign cities i hope to visit one day. i love you so mochi by sarah kuhn, this time will be different by misa sugiura, starfish by akemi dawn bowman, and somewhere only we know by maurene goo are a few of my favorites.

~~not-so-fun~~ facts!
i’m trilingual – i speak cantonese, mandarin and english (i took arabic and german a few years back, but don’t consider myself fluent enough to count them as languages i speak)
tofu is my favorite ice cream flavor
i have a dog named coffee (but i don’t drink coffee, lol)
according to old pottermore, i’m a slytherin, but new pottermore says i’m a gryffindor
tokyo, paris and the scottish highlands are my favorite places on earth
lady gaga, lana del rey, queen (the british band), videoclub and taylor swift are my favorite musicians
i’m a classically trained violinist, but i don’t play anymore
i love asian food – chinese hot pot, kimchi fried rice and chicken pad see ew are some of my absolute favorites!
i love and look up to team usa’s figure skaters a lot, especially vincent zhou!
i’m an aspiring law student, and i hope to study law in the uk :))
i’m an avid traveler, and love exploring different countries and their cultures
