ABOUT ME

Currently I'm a student studying integrated marketing communications in Northwestern U, near Evanston, Illinois.

I'm originally from Kaohsiung, Taiwan, a harbor city where sunshine and ocean view are mostly accessible. Fascinated by cultures from all over the world, I had started my travel experience since little. During which I have met some great people, eaten great food, and done some incredibly fun stuff! I find every place on the earth got its own distinctive beauty and I am eager to explore more about this world.

Besides traveling, I have a passion for art and culture. I am very fond of contemporary art, illustration artwork especially. I am all about films, music, and literature, things that people use to express their emotion and thoughts with.

I'm quite easy to get along with, according to my friends. Also, I love people with great sense of humor and lay-back personality. If you are one of those people, let's meet!

PHILOSOPHY

WORK HARD AND PLAY HARDER.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first cs experience happened back in Paris, 2012. I met Anita, a girl from Poland, and we had the best afternoon picnic ever at Jardin de Luxembourg!! After that, in 2013, I met two local guys at Safranbolu, Turkey and they showed us some very unforgettable sites near the city, introduced us to some great turkish bear and cuisine. I love how couch surfing brings me to these wonderful people, who i would have probably never met if I haven't dared to try CS.

I think everyone has their unique talent and interesting part, and it would be nice to get to know them through talking.
