Hi, I’m Ben! I grew up in Texas and started traveling after Uni. I’ve spent time in 20+ countries and lived in 5. I met my girlfriend, Lauren a year and a half ago in Colombia and we’ve been exploring the world together ever since. Right now we are spending 3 months in Taiwan while teaching English online.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking to explore Taiwan on a budget 👍🏼
