Originally born in Taipei, Taiwan I moved across the globe to Australia then China. Experiencing a multitude of cultures across my life I’ve grown to be curious of the world. Cultivating my interests in reading, philosophy, psychology and design. Hoping to enter the tech industry for my future career whilst continuing with my passion for photography and also perhaps developing on my growing interest in film.

I’m a go getter, I prefer to take action rather than waiting on the sidelines for something to happen. Which is why I was Au Pairing in Northern France and travelling to 2 different cities/countries every month to gain a wider worldview. I love adventure, new experiences and music (I play piano, a bit of ukulele, and learning guitar from the neighbour). I believe that everyone has something to teach you and the more you put yourself in a position to meet more people the more you can increase your serendipity (an unplanned fortunate discovery, finding something good without looking for it).

Currently Inter-railing around Europe before visiting Iceland again for a month and Paris to work and study French before flying back to Australia.

Would be lovely to find someone who shares the same interests!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I’m currently on a gap year and I want to experience and learn as much as I can about the world from others through conversation and experience. I believe that connection is one of the key pillars that provides fulfilment in life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

FULLY COVID VAXXED WITH BOOSTER

I was the Mc at the Push Stage at St Kilda festival which is the largest free festival in the Southern Hemisphere.

I submitted a photo essay “small sparks” to an newspaper focusing on submissions from POC. After having my work selected to be published I found that I can begin to earn money from my photography, introducing me to the world of freelance photography.

I organised and held a leadership conference to empower women with 14 other girls

I was one of the 12 members on the council of the national gallery of Victoria and gave tours of the gallery to an audience of 1000 teens who attended the NGV teen party which I also helped organise

Participated in the Australian Air Force Cadets where I undertook two leadership courses to become a Cadet Sergeant helping mentor young women and teach classes in aviation and service knowledge

Reaching out to an award winning Australian architecture studio, Studio Bright, I was invited over to complete work experience enabling me to build connections in the Industry.
