About Me

Traveling and working for 4 years since 2016 in New Zealand and 2017-2019in London. Now I'm back home :)

A curious girl, easy going, laugh a lot, positive, like to use the chopsticks to eat everything even chips.

I believe all I 've seen and learned became good experiences in my life, So I like to listen stories that makes me interest in things easily.
I would like to become a book that people would like to read again and again.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I started to know CS. I had my own Bed and Breakfast back home. The idea of Bed and Breakfast seems a bit like CS, which is the best thing I like- travel and live with locals, you could always find something new in a different way. Also ,I've heard many good experiences from friends ,so I would like to start my journey with the new adventure.
In 2018 and 2019, I've travelled around Europe, met a lot of wonderful people from CS,Some of them even gave me the real help or inspired me a lot! I wish I could do something for travelers when they need in Taiwan!

Interests

I was an art teacher back home,also managed the Bed and Breakfast in Yilan county.
I've worked as a tea advisor in London,a real tea lover!!
I'm into photography, especially the small details in the daily life.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music for me is very important. Music is the art most strongly connected to memory and it has the greatest ability to influence emotions. I don't have any favorite music but I like most of them.

Movies,Forrest Gump,before sunrise,before sunset,before midnight,Amélie,Taare Zameen Par,The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, about time, The Way, etc.
