I got stuck in Taipei during Covid and never left. I work for a FinTech start up. I run a LGBT running/waling club and drink too much wine. I do other stuff too

Couchsurfers who love to travel independently are best suited for my place. Expect to have a bedroom to yourself, aircon, decent sofa bed, wifi, a full fridge that you’re welcome to. Please treat it as your own.

Just a few points:
1. This is not a hook-up app. I just want to help out the CS community where I can.
2. It’s always kind of people to offer presents but it really isn’t expected.
3. Please don’t feel pressure to do anything for me in return. It’s always great to get offers to be cooked for or taken out for a meal. I leave early and come home late, especially during the week. Don’t been offended if I decline.
4. I can’t be your tour guide. I can certainly point you in the right direction though.
5. I love my running. If you’re a runner, bring your stuff and join me and my Taipei Frontrunners group, check us out on FB or Insta @taipeifrontrunners
6. On the occasions I do have a social thing and you want to come and meet some locals, I’ll extend the invite.
7. Am always up for a chat over a tea, coffee or a glass of wine.

Look forward to meeting you.
