About Me

At present I am in my gap year after resignation in august. Now I'm in Melbourne, Australia, planing to move to Broome, WA in late March.

I've finished my study in Taiwan and have went back to my university in Guangzhou(Canton) in Guangdong Province. If you travel to Guangzhou, u can contact me and we can meet each other and have a drink~:)

I used to be an exchange student in Kaohsiung, Taiwan and come from Conghua, Guangzhou, China. I'm outgoing and love to meeting different people with different backgrounds. I think the biggest fun of travelling is to making new friends and exchanging ideas or sharing experiences with each other. During my stay in Taiwan, so far I visited most parts of Taiwan and I've deeply fallen in love with her!

In Jan. 2015, I'll have to say goodbye to Taiwan and I'm planning my last trip in Taiwan after my final exams.

Outgoing, easygoing.

PHILOSOPHY:
Years may wrinkle the skin, but to give up enthusiasm about life wrinkles the soul.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Except Taiwan, I haven't been to any other place outside mainland China. By couchsufing, I hope to meet people from all over the world and wish that, one day, I'm economically independent enough to travel to the world and meet new friends .

Interests

I'm particularly interested in gender issues, often joining in some related activities. When in Guangzhou, I once participated in a drama whose topic is the whole life of a female, acting as a female employee harassed by her boss. This scene is adapted from a real story in mainland China.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1. Participating in a local drama named "For Vagina's Sake" in Guangzhou, acting as a female employee harassed by her boss. This scene is adapted from a real story in mainland China. This drama is about the whole life experiences of a female in mainland China.

2. As a freshman of riding electronic motorbike , I drove a friend heading for Cingshuei Cliff, in Suhua Highway,in Hualien. It was very dangerous because the road was very narrow and there were many cars and coaches. Also, besides us, it was the precipitous cliff. However, at the end, we missed the Cingshei Cliff while our motor bike was out of electricity. That was definitely the most terrible and unforgettable experience of mine in Taiwan,

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach:I can teach you Cantonese and Mandarin if you're a foreigner~

I can also share my experience of participating in activities related to gender issues and sexual minorities, such as acting in drama and joining the gay pride parade. Also I can share life and cultures of Guangzhou with you.
