About Me

ABOUT ME

Pingtung (southeast county in Taiwan ) → Taichung → Taipei →Berlin →Taipei

Next City: Toronto

Over 30 years old, Buddhist,traveler,writer and historian. Resoluter and Stronger than you can imagine. I hate most of the first impressions of the Asian girls: phoenix eyes and long-dark hair, so red hair became my own mark. I was a crazy girl, but now I prefer to have a peace life rather then another one.

After 7 years in Berlin, I came back Taiwan. However, I will go to Toronto next year.

P.S. about language, yes, I can communicate with English and German for sure, but I don't think they are really fluent, but anyway much better then learning :p

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As a person, who is always on the road and shuttle back and forth between three cities (Taipei, Berlin, Toronto), I understand how warm could be if you get a place, where there are someone treating you as a family, when you go to a strange city. I think this is the sprit of CS . I would like to get these experience s and also wish I can offer these feeling to other traveler.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

According the record of CS, I got few experiences. However I still have some and some came from other ways. When I hosted someone or been a guest, I found a lot life story, it's really important to me, especially I am a writer.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-- I published a book about my travel. (2012)

-- I study Tibetan 5 hours pro day in this summer.(2010)

-- In Romania I hitched around this country and 9 times dinner with local people in 25 days. Incredible friendly Country. (2008)

-- My first backpacking was in Tibet, but that time I confused the terrain in Tibet and Mongolia. So I just knew that Tibet is in a over 4000m plateau on the one day before I departured. But I came back alive and go Mongolia in few years later. (2005)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can not figure out what I can learn from or teach someone, who just stays with you few days, anything except their life experience :p But of cause, if you want a quick Chinese class more then "Ni Hau", I think I will be a good teacher. But I really like to listen the story from your person life, your country(society, history, politic ).

What I Can Share with Hosts

Zachary and I both are culture experiencers, writer and traveler, so a nice talking is foreseeable. If you are traveling in east Asia, we will give a complete view of east Asia. Otherwise, at lest we can tell you where have best food.
