About Me

Hi! I was born and raised in Taipei, Taiwan until I was 9, when I immigrated to the U.S. I'm currently pursuing French and International Studies degrees at the University of California, Irvine. This year, I am fortunate enough to study in Bordeaux as a foreign exchange student! Which means I have to travel all over Europe!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a wonderful way to make friends from other countries. In a sense, I think Couchsurfing makes a trip more meaningful because we get to experience authentic, local lifestyles by living with hosts.
