I have studied Mandarin in Taipei for over a year and half. Recently, I decided to move to Hualien to experience a difference pace of life in Taiwan. I can't host because I live in a hostel in exchange for a helping hand, but definitely down to meet up and hangout!

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I've done travel staying in hostels and the like, and I do really enjoy meeting the variety of people you encounter in those places, but it seems to me that this generally limits the people you meet to other foreigners. Couchsurfing seems like a great way to meet and hang with the locals.

Centres d'intérêt

Reading, SCUBA, nature, politics, people (I'll talk about anything, no guarantee I'll know what I'm talking about though)

• cooking
• politics
• reading
• traveling
• hiking
• scuba diving
• sailing
• rock climbing
• trekking
• mountain climbing

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I'm pretty open to variety in music. I used to be a big concert junkie before travel took over my budget.

Good movies are good movies. I like documentaries. I'm more of a reader than a watcher though.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

8000 mile road trip across the continental U.S. and back. Four dudes, two tents, one Corolla. It was a simpler time.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I teach English for a living. I'm trying to learn Mandarin, I'll fit Spanish in eventually. One day guitar, another sailing. So many things to learn, I wish I had started sooner and had better discipline.
