ABOUT ME

Hi, I am Ken, 29 year old, from Taiwan. Graduated from National Taiwan University and majored in Bio-environmental system engineering, I am interested in projects related to Eco and nature. I am always enthusiasm to explore and try new things. For example, I attended and held many campus activities when I was in school. I participated in all kinds of activities and also joined dance club and so on.

I like to meet new people and to experience different kinds of culture and life styles. I also enjoy a lot to share my culture, language and stories with others. I am good at handling pressure and stress. I believe in finding solutions instead of complaining and whining.

Traveling to me is a lifelong lesson. It is not just about making your life colorful, but the most important parts are to know yourself more and contribute yourself to the society. In this way, I believe life can be meaningful, and colorful of course!

PHILOSOPHY
Success is a choice!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm looking to host people and show them my city. I hope to make a friend and an excellent guide to their city if I should visit in the future.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Still yet to get the chance to try couchsurfing, but I'm headed to the Europe this fall&winter, and looking for places to start my CS journey :)

Interests

- hanging out with friends (from quiet evenings talking together at home to drinking and dancing in clubs, I enjoy anything as long as I'm having a good time with interesting people)
- reading (I like every kind of books but I have to say my favorites all are classics)
- watching movies and TV shows (Game of Thrones is such a great one!)
- listening to music (but well, who doesn't??)
- eating !! I couldn't live without good food and that's one of the reason I love travelling, I like to try different tastes just as much as I am crazy about French food... : )
