About Me

I'm a friendly and easy-going person. I'm also a reliable and true friend. I really like traveling , enjoying different cultures, and making friends from all over the world. I'm blessed to have so much important and genuine friendship through traveling. I'm curious about the world and always happy to be in the new place. When I travel, I don't really search information about the place. I like to discover and feel it in my way. It's not fun to follow the guidebook.

I have been in New Zealand and Australia for working holiday. It's one of the best experience in my life. And I used to be a volunteer in Cambodia and Nepal for couple months. It's a special trip for me as well.

After backpacking over 20 countries, I realize people means more than scenery to me. I like to meet local people. When I think of a place I've been, I always remember the people I met there. They make the place meaningful for me. I always can learn different stuff from people.

I'm a tour guide and tour leader in Taiwan. I like to work in tourism because meeting other travelers makes me feel like I'm still traveling. Besides, I have the official teaching license in Taiwan. I can teach you some Mandarin if you would like to learn.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to meeting more people from around the world.
