About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel around when I have time

ABOUT ME

Hi! I am Wendy from Taiwan. I had been in Helsinki, Finland as an exchange student from January to May, 2012. I am a rather indoor person and not that outgoing, but I will try my best to help :)
I am now doing my Master's degree study in Management Information Systems, which is a field I am very interested in. I am an organized person, which means I like to have schedules and plans beforehand. Some of my friends would say that I am a reliable person, and always do my best to complete tasks. But sometimes I am just a lazy bone :P
I enjoy sharing Chinese culture and cultural differences with people from a different culture.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Mostly surfing now, but maybe hosting in the future!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far I do not have many CouchSurfing experiences, but I really enjoy it! I first tried surfing when I travel around the Baltic Sea countries in the end of March, 2012. I had two hosts, one in Warsaw and another in Riga, and both of them are great!

Interests

I usually surf the Internet or play games in my free time. If I have more time and find a book I would like to read, I will also do some reading.
I like Japanese comics, animations, games and music, which is one of the major reasons I learn Japanese :D
As I mentioned, although I am a rather indoor person, I still enjoy traveling around!

Music, Movies, and Books

I do not really watch movies because sometimes I feel exhausted after watching one.
I like Japanese rock music, and my favorite band is GRANRODEO. I also like Chinese and English old songs, which my father usually listens to at home.
I enjoy reading detective novels. I like Edgar Allen Poe's short stories. I recently started to read some Japanese detective novels to practice my Japanese reading skills.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1. Traveled all way alone from Taipei, Taiwan to Helsinki, Finland
2. Saw snow for the first time in my life when I arrived in Helsinki
