About Me

Just remodeled our house. Check My Home out. ( Time flies. it's been 3 years!!)
My place, LongTan, is 35 minutes away from the airport by car, so I am usually willing to pick up pr drop off my guests at the airport. It takes 50-60 minutes to Taipei center by public transportation.

I am a 50 y.o. male married to a beautiful wife with 3 adorable children ( 21, 19, 17), and a PE and Special ed. teacher.
As the older 2 children goes to university, now we have only 3 people at home on weekdays.

I enjoy sports. I also like exciting activities like bungie jumping, parachuting, skiing, breaking 100m world record, going to the Space.....ha-ha, none of those I've done.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Every time after hosting travelers, I feel like I have enjoyed a travel myself.
Most people live around people and travel to see scenery. But I dream about living in a scenery and traveling to meet people. Before that dream comes true, hosting offers me to travel in people.
So, why not?

I met a couchsurfer, Eva, in Taitung, Taiwan, and invited her to my place in Taoyuan before she left Taiwan. And glad she did come. She told me about couchsurfing and I thought it's so cool and fun.
Since I like meeting people around the world and have no time and money to meet them across the ocean. So, why wouldn't you come to meet me?
