By paddling through the city’s waterways, Li sidesteps the congestion and chaos of driving or taking public transport. His approach not only saves time but also provides a refreshing experience amid the challenges of urban life.

Li has been trying to expand his “kayaking to work” community by offering free rides to strangers. His efforts have encouraged others to also start kayaking to work. Post senior video producer Thomas Yau got on board to join Li on one of his unique daily journeys.
