I'm a Taiwanese national whom grew up in Namibia and settled in South Africa.

I'm an ex-management consultant currently building a startup aiming to be the Uber of chronic healthcare from Johannesburg, South Africa.

I enjoy traveling, with special focus on the local lifestyle. I try to stay away from the usual "must-see" tourist hotspots which usually dilutes the true experience of living in a city.

I'm also really into pugs (as you can see from my profile).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have historically used AirBnB to travel - which is already a better experience than hotels.

However, I would also like to use Couchsurfing to meet people! I would like to experience the city as the locals have experienced and hopefully make genuine friendships that I can reciprocate someday!
