About Me

CURRENT MISSION

travel, plan these travel, dream about other travel, learn the languages I can use when I travel

ABOUT ME

Currently co-hosting with my roommate and good friend Boris, he'll probably entertain you a lot more than I would since he's much more of a people person :D

All about me? Well I'm quite a big dreamer! Sometimes I wonder if I dreamed too much and done too little :) Somewhat adventurous but indecisive at times, and do literally want to see all parts of our beautiful planet earth!

Originally from Taiwan, have been living in the beautifully green (though sometimes too gray) Seattle for 8 years now.

PHILOSOPHY

TO TRAVEL IS TO LIVE.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first couchsurfing experiences in (the "nation" of) Québec were fantastique!

Interests

Geography and Maps. Contrary to what some believe, plotting those little dots on the map is really meaningful to me.

Architecture/Graphics/Designs/pretty looking stuff

  • architecture
  • traveling
  • cartography
  • geography
  • languages

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: pop/dance/electronica.
Movies: The Lord of the Rings and alikes
Books: travel guides! That's like the only section I go to in the bookstores and libraries, regardless it being written in English, Chinese, or Japanese.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seeing Japan with JR-Pass was quite an amazing journey (well for a person who thinks taking train is a fun pasatiempo).
Taking the Alaska Marine Highway ferry from Bellingham, Washington all the way up to Skagway, Alaska through the breath taking Inside Passage was also unforgettable.
