🇿🇦-->🇹🇼

I'm considered ABC here in Taiwan. Born in Taiwan but grew up in South Africa for the past 20 years. Majored in Hospitality Management believing that I would get to travel more, turns out my theory was wrong haha!

I love traveling and my current mission is to travel across Taiwan as many locals have told me that this is one of many right of passage to becoming a true Taiwanese citizen haha (not sure how true that is but it sounds like fun =D ).

A pretty chilled person who loves making new friends from all different walks of life, exchanging life lessons and stories. Enjoy chilling, exploring, eating, laughing, learning something new or just chill with a cup of tea (not a big fan of coffee). Believe that all conflict can be cured by CHOCOLATE. Open-minded and sociable.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

FOR THE COUCHSURFING EXPERENCE

- I believe that traveling is not worthwhile if you don't make friends along the way.

- I would like to meet and make more friends from around the world or just simply from Taiwan.
