Hi, I'm Ching from Taipei, Taiwan. I didn’t set up my home country in CS file cause there’s no correct option so I kept it blanket. But yes I’m 100% Taiwanese:) I'm now studying in Poland. Before starting my career I still have plenty of time to travel around to meet new people and to learn new things.

I would say I’m an open-minded and easy going person that always interested in exploring new territories of life. Also I'm a travel addict, a book lover, a tea/coffee fanatic and a notorious strawberry-eater:) I like animals a lot that I used to be a volunteer in shelter for years before I came to Europe. During the holidays I sometimes participate in working-holiday that can interact with animals and nature and having some break from the hustling city life.

There's always time for a cup of tea or coffee and some talk with new friends during journey that I always looking forward to explore the possibility of life:)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Still a beginner here on CS but I've met several amazing people while traveling and really enjoy those impact between different background. Without those who I met from CS the travel experience snd life would totally change:D I would love to meet more new people and learn from different cultures. For me the experiences are more than just spending some time together but those experiences really improve part of me which I always looking forward to discover the possibility of life.

Interests

I like to spend time in nature or with animals if it is possible. I love outdoor activities like cycling or hiking but if I got time I would love to spend more time in the museums as well.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen and read whatever interesting but mostly depend on my mood:)
Recently I discovered techno and viking music which became my latest favorite but also the classical, folk, latino and RnB are always enjoyable. I also like to find different kinds of music as well and always appreciate for the recommendations :)
Fantasy, historical and crime novels are always my favorite choice to pass time but with a warm soft blanket horror is also a nice choice:)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Assisting a dystonia cow to give birth while doing the workaway :D

Teach, Learn, Share

People I met sometimes very curious about Chinese words and the complicated history so I do like to share them in a simplify way:)
I'm still a newbie in playing chess, horse riding and techno and I really want to learn more about them.
It's always enjoyable to learn and share the way of cooking. There's no better way for a foodie to know how to cook those delicious dishes from different cultures:)

Language exchange, Asian cuisine, culture, experience sharing. Also I can help with cleaning and all kinds of house chores:)
