Hi, I am Lydia, you can call me Hsiao-Yen as well.
I major in animation and just graduated from university this year.
Kaohsiung is my hometown, and I came back from Taipei since graduation.

I love drawing illustration and sketches, that's how I note down my travel.
You may also be one of the illustrations in my travel diary.:)

Food is one of my passion, and I think it's the base of a culture. From eating to cooking, table to the farm and food knowledge, everything. If you could share this with me, that'd be wonderful!

I love walking and cycling, so be prepared to have a walking tour instead of driving. I think Kaohsiung is a perfect place for cycling in winter!

Please send me a request with a complete profile of yourself.^^

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Just want to share my culture with more people, know about yours, and learn different languages.
Visiting different countries and cultures is my dream.
"People" makes a place what it is, and a trip is different by meeting a new friend.

I can't afford to travel very much, while your staying and share would help me to see the world.

Intereses

Actually I've a wide range of interests, below's just a reference.:P

Food and Cooking, esp. the specialties of your family or area, but I like creative food as well!
Painting and Drawing, I draw wherever I go.
Nature, Agriculture, Organic, because I love food and the environment.
Cultures, that's always a big attraction to me, I'd love to learn from different people.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I can teach Mandarin (Traditional characters as well), Illustration and Sketch, Taiwanese food.
If possible, please teach me about your food culture or special cuisines!

Aim to learn different languages, it helps me to understand a new culture!
Tell me about your culture or story, or something you're crazy about, also I'll share mine, and that'd be much fun!

I can draw sketches of you or your family, or make some Taiwanese or Chinese food for you, or we just cook together and have a fusion table!
Of course, always a good and willing-to learn surfer and Taiwanese culture to share. :)
