About Me

Hi! I am Jc from Taiwan, but I am not typical Taiwanese.
😅
I am open-minded, easygoing, and an adventurous person.
I always make my way to live life to its fullest and grab the time to enjoy the moment because life is just once.
"IF YOU LIVE RIGHT, ONCE IS ENOUGH."

Living without regrets, I have to say I am lucky enough to see the world and live in different countries.
I lived in Seoul as an exchange student back in university.
I went to Australia for working holidays.
I worked in an international hospital in Cebu Philippines.
All these experiences are my source of inspiration and motivation. I just can't stop traveling and exploring.

I would like to talk about myself a little bit more...
I am definitely a beach person because SURFING IS LIFE.
Surfing is my favorite sport. I have been surfing since I was 20.
I usually spend my weekend on the beach.
As you can imagine a surfer's lifestyle, I am chill, simple, and socialized if it's necessary.
I used to travel around to surf the best waves in countries like Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Philippines...etc.
But I think I should travel out of island countries now and see the other side of the world more.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started using CS before coming to Europe as my friend told me that it's an excellent way to meet locals. That's why I am here. It's always good to make friends and experience something beyond your expectations.

I love Couchsurfing. It's like an unwrapped gift all the time to me. You never know what will happen :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It's DIFFICULT because it's not just one amazing thing...I would say some cool things.

-Skydiving and breathing the fresh air in a 15000ft sky above Byron bay.
-I was kidnapped and forced to gamble in Cebu
-I designed and opened my hostel in Taiwan in 2014.
-I went casting for a Japanese adult movie and became an actor!
