Hi, I'm Shiyi! I'm a public health professional who gave up city life to live closer to nature on the Kitsap Peninsula. I've previously called Boston, Ottawa, Tokyo, and Beijing my home. I'm a retired semi-pro distance runner; these days I enjoy hiking and road cycling for fun. I spend my free time learning about regenerative farming, and my goal is to start a farm-to-table caf
