About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Looking for cooperation, inspirations and opportunities.
Currently a conceptual origamist, feel free to have a look at my works~
https://www.facebook.com/decadentfoldlosopher/

For all travelers and potential friends!!!!
Here we propose a project that we are currently taking an act~
Either you are visiting taiwan for the very first time, or are you fed up with being an ordinary tourist.

We would like to invite you to local schools for some culture exchange lessons, and you ask what's good for you?
- You get to know taiwan from a more local perspective, see what taiwanese see, do what taiwanese do, eat what taiwanese eat.
- An unique experience as you will be learning from students as well as sharing your very own experience.

If that does dazzle you, feel free to drop me a line for further details...
Kindly feel out the form below, so we can match you up with schools :)

To RISK the "future"

ABOUT ME

I am an easy-going person, I like to attend activities(music & sports).
Sharing experiences of our own culture, background, and whatsoever.
I love to have "quality meals"...and try different cuisines!
Recently trying to turn myself into a vegan/freegan...

PHILOSOPHY

Just do it!

Carpe diem~

if you can't explain it simply you don't understand it well enough...

No medicine can cure what happiness cannot

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

What other better ways can you think of to get to know all kinds of people and different parts of the world!!!???

Books: Does "Bible" count?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have not yet done anything astonishing, that's why I am still traveling hoping one day, at somewhere, someone can show me something that really amazes!!

Recently, I have just created a blog (yesterday), and I'd like to share my 6-month travel experience in Europe (France, Germany, England, Czech republic, Poland and Romania).

I spent most of the time hanging out with local people, doing some fun activities as for me knowing the living style is more important than sightseeing.

Some highlights:
During these 6 months,
- I worked as a babysitter in a french family (yes! male aupair~), taking care of evil-like children (just kidding...they are cute :D). Lived in Notting hill, London for about a month for free :D (big thanks to my generous host). Making up my mind of going to Poland from England in 5 hours. Only had 140 euros left with me, and still kindly lent 120 euros to an anonymous Japanese tourist...etc...

-No plan, no budge...JUST GO WITH THE FLOW (ain't always a positive approach..but suits me)

- Traveled with big amount of cash...as I didn't have cards of any kind, I spent 3000 Euros in total including all kinds of expense and roundtrip ticket (thanks to CS and HH).

- Encountered none rubbery, and accidents. (and that's why we say 傻人有傻福!)

Teach, Learn, Share

I don't dare to teach anything I would prefer to share. The better I know the less I know~

I love to learn, perhaps anything and everything.
