Hey guys ! This is Leona from Taiwan.
In March / 2024 , I'm gonna start my world trip to say hello to everyone !
I have read a book " Die with zero " and it changed my life .
This book is one of the big reason I quit my job and give myself a longer break in life .
Experience is always the most important ,right ?
Buy experience , not buy items ! because those good memories with good people will stay in your mind forever .
You can always make money but your 25 year old , 35 year old or 55 year old will never come back.
That's what I believe !

I host people when I'm in Taiwan and offering free walking tour in Taipei .
If you are interested in any , you can find me on my Instagram : heyrollyourglobe

I've been to many countries and I've done Taiwan island trip for 4 times .
Welcome to chat with me if you need any information.

I'm a really outdoor person , I do surfing , free diving , skateboarding , bouldering and playing badminton . Nature is always my favorite. Of course food , culture , history , lifestyle are all I am curious about .
I like reading ,writing , taking photos and playing guitar , too !

My current planned route :
Srilanka - Nepal -India (including Ladak)- Jordan(not confirmed yet) - Israel (cancelled) - Egypt - Italy -Slovenia- Austria - Czech - Poland - Morocco - Portugal- Spain - Peru - Chile- New Zealand - back to Taiwan .

If I will pass by you , let me know about it !
or if you will pass by Taiwan soon, let me know about it as well .
