Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I feel that seeing a place from a local perspective offers a much richer cultural experience!

Interests

I just wanna dance! I love ballroom, lindy hop, hip hop, ballet - anything!

I also really love learning languages. I'm not great at speaking because I get really shy about it, but I love the process of learning and the moment when you realize that you understand what someone else is saying when you never had before.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Grew up in the US, worked for over a decade in 3D animation at Pixar, moved to Taiwan after covid started, and now I am working at a small film startup learning how to be a professional in Chinese 😅

Travel-wise, I’ve been very lucky to see a lot - spent a summer interning in Germany during college during the World Cup making international friends and traveling; seeing a total solar eclipse in Idaho after a few days backpacking with a whole mountain to ourselves; night diving with manta rays and walking up to surface lava in Hawaii; hiking the Inca Trail for four days up to Macchu Picchu; snowboarding in Hokkaido.

Lucky to have had so many amazing life experiences! I hope I can share some of the US and Taiwan with you too ❤️
