Hey there!

I'm Nellie, friends call me 斯涵(my Chinese name). I was born and raised in Kaohsiung, now live in Taipei teaching some lovely 7-12 year old kids.

When I was in college, I used to take part-time jobs as
-a receptionist in a hotel restaurant
-a shop assistant in Dr. Martens stores
-a marketing assistant in a screen door company
-a bungee jumping staff
-a fashion magazine editor
-a tutor(I teach kids English phonics)

With these experiences, I find that I really love interacting with people, especially kids.
I'm really into my current job, and I'm proud to say I have found my career.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I used to write postcards via postcrossing, now I think it's time to have some encounters.
I love meeting new people and making friends!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to Cambodia for volunteering work right after I came back to Taiwan from Liaoning, China.
It was really crazy and amazing because I had to adapt from -29 degrees to 23 degrees less than a day.
