About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Backpacking in Europe for over a month in 2018

ABOUT ME

Friendly, down to earth, easy going. Love nature.
Enjoy cooking, drinking and having small party with friends.

Spent 1 year in Australia for working holiday, half year in the US for studying.
Luckily my current job is international marketing / sales which giving me the chance to visting Germany and the US couple times a year.

Born and raised in south Taiwan, Tainan, a lovely city and also the oldest city in Taiwan.
We are very proud of our historical sites and famous snacks.
Now working in Taipei for 6 years, just like everyone in all big cities around the world, I am kind of struggling in seeking higher position and income or focusing on the real life - traveling, family, realstionship......

So I decide to give myself a pause and think my next step.
Europe I am coming!!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In my opinion
Travel is not just taking a plane, staying in nice hotel, having in fancy restaurant and shopping.
It should be much more than that.
The real travel is to interact with the people, environment and to make a memory on each others' life.

I hope to meet more locals to experience the life style you are having now.
