CURRENT MISSION

To keep enjoying the Taiwanese food without having to buy 2 seats for the plane journey home...

ABOUT ME

I’ve been a student for 5 years now, and have enjoyed using my excessive summer holidays to travel around. I love seeing new places, experiencing new cultures and just generally having an adventure! I’m sociable, laid back, like sharing stories and never say no to trying new things.

PHILOSOPHY

Too big for a box! / I can't think of something deep/witty enough to put here atm / I'll let you know when I know!

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I’ve been staying in Tainan since the start of July. During August I’d like to explore the rest of the country (I know there won’t be time to see everything!) I think couch surfing sounds like an awesome way to appreciate and learn more about Taiwan from people who know it best.

I study in Edinburgh and hopefully I’ll be able to return the favour to the couchsurfing community when I go home in September!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Haven't "surfed or been surfed" before as this is my first time travelling alone, but only heard good things and feel like I've been missing out!

Centres d'intérêt

Nature, wildlife and the outdoors! - mountains, lakes, forests, beaches. Art (other people’s – I’m rubbish), museums. I enjoy cooking and eating food, sampling fine beers/just drinking beer. Playing all types of sport.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I like to learn… teaching-wise, I can juggle (poorly) and apart from that I have no transferable skills! (sorry) I’m currently learning Chinese, and always looking to practice.
