About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy the life and appreciate for what I got. And travel more !

ABOUT ME

Home is wherever I am.

Originally from 🇹🇼 Taiwan(Taipei), lived in 🇯🇵 Japan (Tokyo), 🇦🇺 Australia (Sydney) and 🇲🇾 Malaysia (Kuala Lumpur).

Just finished my working holiday in 🇨🇦 Canada ( Montreal).

Now I am travelling in Latin America, currently in Peru 🇵🇪 . This trip will be 3 to 6 months. And then see where I end up afterwards. ( Could be North Africa or South Asia).

I am easy going, also talkative as well

A jolly by nature, and love to laugh.

I enjoy traveling and reading, also into culinary and wine. Then go to my imaginary gym 😉

Always down for food and drink, and I like to share about travel experiences.

PHILOSOPHY

Be water.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My friend suggested that I should try CS as I love to travel and experience different cultures.

Also I like to meet new people too, and always love to help other fellow travellers.

so let's do it! Pass the kindness over!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Had an amazing time when I visit South Australia, I appreciate the kindness of people and wish I will be able to do the same to others once I have chance.

Interests

I am passionate about culinary and wine.

Love to enjoy the taste of ingredient itself but I'm able to juggle with loads of herb and spice as well. Haven't been to any cooking class but rarely got negative reviews from friends or family member.

Reading brought a huge influence to me since I was a kid, never feel l have learned enough knowledges.

Started my first solo trip when I was 16, then realized a spontaneous trip without to do list can be great (especially if you are not interest in those things which are not fits your preference). Then this motivation brought me to every continent and then I decided to live my life differently. Becoming a digital nomad now, and I like what I am doing at the moment.

I like tropical islands and beaches. My ideal holiday is to tan myself at the beach and swim in the sea. Oh and mojito, keep them coming!
