I'm from Scotland, but I have lived in Italy and Japan, so I have a big interest in both cultures. Now I am currently studying in Taiwan and learning Chinese.

I love travelling, I enjoy meeting new people, trying new food, seeing new places, learning new languages. So far I've travelled to 22 countries and intend to make it more.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I live in a shared apartment with no spare beds, so unfortunately I can't host at the moment, but I am definitely open to meeting new people, whether they come to Taipei or I go to their city.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed a couple of nights in Bologna, Italy and in Japan, and I've hung out with couchsurfers who were staying with some friends of mine. I have also hosted in Japan.

Music, Movies, and Books

Tarantino lover - My favourite film ever is Pulp Fiction. I think the list would be too long, but I do love most quality films.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I also cycled 70km along the Shimanami Kaido cycling path in Japan, which is said to be one of the best cycle routes in the world. I have hiked numerous beautiful routes in Taiwan and travelled to 22 amazing countries.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am always happy to help people with their English and want to be an English teacher. In exchange I would like someone to help me improve my Italian or Chinese if they are able to. Otherwise, let's just share stories and create new ones.

What I Can Share with Hosts

If there are any snacks or souvenirs from Taiwan that you want then let me know!
