Overview
About Me
I am easy-going, and amiable person. I am now an free man waiting for the start of the semester of the graduated school after the compulsary service. My interests can fall into 2 main categories: academic and outdoor activities.
In academic, I love medicine, which is related to my major in college, and any other knowledge of human body. This is one of the reason making me want to be a doctor in the future.
In outdoor activities , such as camping, hiking, volleyball playing, traveling and so on. I use my spare time, like weekends vacations, to join a special mountain programs, which held by my past junior high school and planned for training the certain high school students to expose in and understand the nature and learn some survival skills, and become an counselor on Mt. Yang-Ming. I always having fun there. I can barely forget the impressive thing i have done is constructing a shelter by my own hands.
I love exercise very much. I play every kind of sports in every stage of my life. I played badminton with my family when I was an elementary students. I started to play the soccer when I was in junior high school. And then due to without the place to play soccer, i changed to play the popular exercise in Taiwan, basketball. But i was really poor at that, I choose to played the volley ball after I entered the college. And I am glad to my final choose. I made a lot of friends, traveled around Taiwan to participated the competition and won trophies in two among all contests. It's a memorable experience.
Even I have less opportunity to go for traveling around the world, due to the time limitation and financial problem, I still find some times out to go a domestic travel. I have been to Xinzhu, Kaohsiung, Taichung, and Koto island with my friends.
PHILOSOPHY
-Life is going to the unknown.
-The world is a bookshelf, and everyone is a book waiting for others to read and learn something from it.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I have heard the couchsurfing through a speech. It sounds really interesting to me. It is an totally amazing way for traveling I have never thought before. In this approach, I can have opportunity to know more people and get close to the cultures where I'v been. And learning from and contacting with the natives is the thing I consider to be the meaning of traveling. So I am really looking forward to having the chance to do it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Dropped from a floating board and almost drawn into the river in Seattle when coincided in my birthday.
Teach, Learn, Share
I got my bachelor degree, majoring in medical science, at NTHU. I am now graduated. And i have been approve to enter the NTU to study the medical engineering. The research i will conduct is about hair reconstruction. I am really enchanted with medicine. Moreover, after inspired by several story of medicine without border from books and few doctors, I sincerely hope one day I can have abilities and knowledge to help people all around the world, like what MSF do. So I have planned to prepare the MCAT for oversea doctorate education. I hope I can make the friends with someone who have the same dream and target during traveling.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I love cooking, even I'm not professional in it. I may deliver some simple traditional Chinese or Taiwanese dishes. Sharing the some experience in America and in Taiwan and some funny (or silly) stories I have experienced in either past days or military. I can also teach the Mandarin and few Taiwanese.
I am now learning the Ukulele. I'm a beginner, just starting from recently. I still can't played too many cords yet. But if someone want, we can make fun together. :))
