About Me

My name is Cecilia, from Taiwan. Chill and relaxed to hang out with, spontaneous and curious person. I'm open to try new things and meet new people and adventurous enough to break the rules and step out of my comfort zone. I'm an entrepreneur, digital nomad, and content creator. I've lived the digital nomad lifestyle since 2016. So far, I've traveled to 30+ countries.

I'm a travel addict who loves to discover new cultures, explore the world, meet interesting people with different backgrounds, share stories, and learn from others' experience.

The Netherlands is my favorite country. I've spent a bit more than 1 year living in Amsterdam as a digital nomad, now I'm planning to go back and excited to meet new people. :)

I share everything including the tips you need for traveling alone.
.
I'm a traveler who wanders around the world and travels in mind. I have been travelling solo and digging into spirituality.
.
I did some voluntary work while backpacking in Europe in both 2013 and 2014. I've met a lot of new people during the trips. I am into traveling because I think it is more than just relaxation for the mind, it also helps reacquaint ourselves. I'm a girl full of curiosity who keeps adventuring and exploring the world. Wandering around is definitely an important part of my life. :D NOTE: I have hosted some people, please check my personal reviews if you like. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to meet new people. I would love to discover and learn different cultures from the people I meet, which would be unforgettable and interesting I believe!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I solo travelled to Europe for the first time in 2013 and decided to give Couchsurfing a try. Staying at Johnny's place with Linn in Amsterdam was my first Couchsurfing experience. For me, it was a fresh and tempting way to travel, which I got obsessed with immediately. I get to meet local people and get to know more about their culture and lifestyles. I would like to continue meeting more people in such a way and host someone who's gonna come to Taiwan. : )

In 2014, I tried Couchsurfing again and learned some interesting stories from some local people. I really enjoyed sharing and learning from everyone I've met on my journey.

Now I'm coming to Europe again in 2018. I'm looking forward to meeting more people this year.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I decided to quit my job, buy a one-way ticket to Europe, and start my self-discovery journey. I won't say I am brave, I just feel when I am away, I am the best possible version of myself – I thrive on the unknown and positively shine when I force myself to take on these adventures

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share a lot of things with you, especially love, smile, and joy.

Moreover, if you are interested in Taiwanese culture, food, or anything, I would like to share everything I know with you.

I would also like to talk about my travel and the people I have met so far.

I am interested in both meditation and yoga a lot, so it would also be nice if we can share our experiences.

It would be delightful if you want to let me know any of yours experiences or stories. : )
