Welcome to Japanese Penthouse Retreat! Hey my friend(s), I'm Hong :). About me With a decade in transdisciplinary research, I've woven threads from varied fields into a rich tapestry of knowledge. My life outside work includes laughter through silly videos, culinary experiments based on taste alone, and a passion for food, travel, beer, and the great outdoors. My unique blend of interests includes being a PhD holder, chef, and boxer. Despite jokingly calling myself "a useless PhD," my pursuits are anything but, reflecting a deep engagement with life's diverse experiences. Hobbies & Interests: Food and travel are my obsessions, alongside beer tasting and enjoying Australia's natural beauty through bushwalking and swimming. These interests fuel my desire to share the wonders of Canberra with guests. Hosting Philosophy: Hosting is my way of connecting with diverse individuals, offering them a slice of Canberra through my eyes. Guests appreciate my personalized guide to the city, making their stay memorable and highly recommended. Language and Connection: Fluent in English and Chinese, I aim to bridge cultures and create meaningful interactions. My life in Canberra is a testament to the joy of discovery and the beauty of sharing experiences. I invite you to experience the warmth and charm of Canberra with me. Let's make your visit not just a stay, but a journey of discovery and connection. Looking forward to welcoming you, Hong
