About Me

From June 2023: Working holidays for one year in France.

Hi, I'm Jheming from Taiwan. I love movies and photography.

As for me, I'm an introvert but I really like spending time with people. I might be a bit shy at first, but I'm a good listener and willing to help as long as I can.

This year, it's my third time traveling abroad alone. While thinking about my experiences, I asked myself lots of times what these experiences brought me, why I chose these places, and what's the meaning of traveling. At the end, I found that my CS experiences and those people I met during the trips are so memorable. I might forget those amazing views, those tastes of foods, but I'll always remember each person I met during the trips. That's why I'm still here.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In 2017, my friend and I planned to travel around Taiwan by hitchhiking and couchsurfing, that's why I'm here at first. Unfortunately, we failed and misunderstood the meaning of couchsurfing.

Two years later, I decided to travel alone and tried CS again. Then I started to host travelers, because I think that I must give what I can give before receiving.

After hosting different people, my definition about CS was totally changed. I saw kindness of human beings and the good side of the reality through CS, and it made me want to help people as much as it could be.
