Here's some things I like to do for fun:

Watersports. Sailing, swimming, kayaking, canoeing, windsurfing, waterskiing, I love it all!  Lately I've been enamored with sailing Hobie Cats, they're a real blast!  I also enjoy participating in keelboat racing, on boats such as the Martin 242.  Local sailors can visit my website Jericho Wind to get the latest on the current conditions and windspeed.  I'm also actively involved in and an executive of the UBC Sailing Club.

Winter sports. Cuttin' grooves snowboarding down mountains!

Fresh Air. Camping, hiking, rock climbing...

Graphic Arts. I quite enjoy graphic arts and building websites. I designed my brother's elegant decor rental company website Upright Decor.

Music. I have quite a variety of rock, pop, and alternative music I like to listen to, as well as I really enjoy electronic techo/rave music such as big beat, house, and drum n' bass.   I also love fooling around attempting to make some fun tunes. For those who are curious, here is my gear list.

Dance. Who knows, you might find me in some dance club or rave!

Live Theatre.  Sometimes live theatre ends up a cut above the rest!

Food. Some of my favourite foods to cook are Thai, Greek, East Indian, Vietnamese, Chinese, and lots others.. Yum!  Here is handful of some recipies i like.

last but not least, Friends and Family!   here's a picture of my little neice
