Hi, this is Pei-Yu Lin from Taiwan (or you can call me Pei Pei which is easier to pronounce lol) After completed my first master in Counseling Psychology and worked in Children Residential Institution for about 2.5 years, now I am in Stavanger, Norway for my second master in social work with families and children!

I like traveling, meeting new people, and exchanging culture and traveling experiences:) Oh, I am also interested in learning new languages and teaching Mandarin, it’s always so much fun (even I am not a good learner lol)

Last year is my traveling year! Due to different reasons, I’ve been to Nepal, Malaysia, Korea, Canada, Sri Lanka, China, Macau, and Portugal! And this year I will have more trips: Norway-Poland- Greece-Sweden-Denmark- Czechia- Austria- Hungary- Slovakia- England- Ireland :))

I’d like to meet you somewhere in the world and share my stories and hear from yours !!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to make new friends!!! As my major, I have a lot of opportunities to interact with people. I enjoy the companionship with others, and I believe the relationship for each other is worthy. I have much interest in others' life experiences, thinking and feeling.

Interests

Making new friends, exchanging experiences with others, swimming, sports(specially volleyball), traveling around the world, listening music, watching movies, and dancing.
I'm also interested in learning new languages! If you are as well, let's exchange language :))

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Jazz, Rap, Bossa Nova, A cappella, and anything that makes me relax.(Maybe you can recommend me some of your favorites!!)

Movie: I love four kinds of movies, which makes me self reflection, which makes me laugh, which makes me feel touching, and which makes me feel that I'm fall in love! I like to share and discuss the thinking and feeling about the movies with others :).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have three lol, I hope I would have more :D
1. Did volunteer services in different countries- Nepal, Sri Lanka and China, and learned from experiences:))
2. When I did volunteer services in the mountain area, I had ten days without showering lol
3. Last May when I just arrived at the airport in Taiwan, I went to depart hall again to meet my friends and went to the next trip to Korea lol.

Teach, Learn, Share

I learn from experiences, so I hope that the experience with me will be valuable for you. Also I can share some culture of Taiwan.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My ears, I'm a good listener :) Also It's no problem to watch or play with your kid(s)(if you have), I love kids so much! Anything I can help, I'd be willing to do it for you!
