I'm an artist and a parttime gardener based in Taiwan.
I am not a big fan of traveling, but I often find myself on the road.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel to meet people rather than seeing sights or experiencing an exotic culture.
I'd like to host someone who has the same attitude or at least treat me as a person rather than a couch or a tour guide. So, for the future couchsurfers, before you send me a request, please read my profile and home session.

Interests

I am interested in art in public space, human-crafted natural environment and spaces designed to deliver knowledge, such as museums of natural history and botanical gardens.

I am obsessed with botanical gardens at the moment. It is such an interesting context, I will share more when we meet.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my experience of being an artist in residence in different places if you are interested. I usually talk a lot, but I am also an attentive listener. I can also be quiet and meditate with you.

Because I am bad at cooking, I am pretty experienced in washing dishes.
