About Me

I'm a Taiwanese-Canadian born in Taiwan, left when I was 2 years old and grew up in Canada. I speak English, Chinese, and looking to improve my Japanese (stayed in Japan for a year, definitely going back.)
I enjoy meeting new people, love the outdoors, snowboarding/skiing, cycling/hiking/longboarding, shopping + cafe A/C hunting in the summer (lol). I'm fun, passionate, adventurous, and easy to get along. I'm always down to meet up~ come share your stories + experiences with me!

About staying with me.
1. I'm currently living about 5 mins walking distance from 行天宮 station.
2. Requests can be made any time and I'll get back to you ASAP.
3. I'd say 3 nights is max, but exceptions can be arranged.
4. Simple small apartment room, a decent, clean place to just cleanup and rest.
- 1 bed, 1 couch, and small space on floor for YOUR OWN sleeping bag. (Your option is the couch or floor~ Unless you don't mind sharing the bed with me).
- There is A/C and electric fan, so you'll be cool during summer.
- Shampoo + Soap + small towel (prefer you bring your own).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet people, share travel experiences, enjoy living with people with different cultures, and to see things from new perspectives

.. and as to why I'm hosting is because over the years I have been accommodated so kindly by hosts and now that I have a space of my own~ I want to pay it forward. It's also very nice to have friends from all over the world who I hope to meet again someday when I visit.

Interests

Travel, Ski, Snowboard, Mountain biking, Road cycling, longboard / skateboarding, scuba diving, arcades, survival games, having fun, adventures

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Working Holiday in Japan... Time of my life! I've done some crazy stuff over the last two years...
- Loved cycling all over Tokyo area - Izu Oshima
- Random spontaneous roadtrips that ended up becoming the best memories..
- CS experiences~
travels つづく~~ 

What I Can Share with Hosts

Languages, experiences, food, fun, my place, my time, what do you want? haha just ask

I lived/worked/traveled in Japan for a year.
Absolutely love it, left my heart there, and will be back again when I get my hands on a working visa.

I have been to quite a number of places and would be able to share my unique experiences. Niseko, Hakodate, Otaru, Sapporo, Tokyo (all over), Kobe, Nara, Kyoto, Osaka, Hakone, Hiroshima, Kyuushuu area, and Okinawa... I would love to explore Shikoku and the rest of Japan soon. :)

Also, Thailand (Bangkok and Phucket), Philippines (Manila, Coron, El Nido, Boracay), Bali, and the west coast of Canada and US.

I'm currently in Taiwan and got quite familiar with the culture here over the last few years. Becoming a local~ =D.. but there's still plenty to learn and see! Planning to travel south again during summer! Hello sunshine, beaches, bikini, and tropical islands!
