About

안녕하세요! My name is Arnold (상인). I am from the beautiful city of Vancouver [the unceded xʷməθkwəy̓əm (Musqueam), Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish), and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) territory]. I was a child of the 80s. I spent most of my time with my friends riding our BMXs, playing road hockey, building forts, and playing Nintendo, and being told to come home before dark. I grew up with dial-up Internet and learned HTML through building websites on GeoCities and Tripod. I was a user of MS-DOS, Windows 95, BBS, Internet Explorer, Infoseek, Hotmail, ICQ, and Winamp.

Some adventures I have been on include living in Toronto, walking on the Great Wall of China, touring the Korean DMZ, snowboarding in Japan, exploring the coasts of Australia, driving around the Scottish Highlands, surfing at the beaches in Tofino, and portaging in the wilderness of Northern Ontario.

I have met some famous Canadians in my life including former Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, at a cafe; two-time NBA MVP, Steve Nash, at a game during his rookie season with the Phoenix Suns; and former professional ice hockey player who scored the winning goal for Team Canada in the 1972 Summit Series against the Soviet Union, Paul Henderson, helping him with a speaking event.

In my free time, I enjoy hiking, running, cycling, golfing, snowboarding, watching K-dramas, and reading books.
