About Me

A curious old soul.

Laugh a lot but don't have enough smiles. Book worm, music lover, not necessary a foodie but I'll die without veggies. I enjoy black humour and British accent (who doesn't?).

I'm into...
rock climbing, reading, acoustic guitar (if you have an electronic guitar, you HAVE TO teach me how to play it!), singing, song-writing, screenwriting, walking in the nature, drawing, observing people and things.

I generally pretty self sufficient yet I enjoy company of interesting people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Ccouchsurfing is where I can find a home anywhere I go. To me, home is not a physical location, but a place that relaxes and lights up the mind.

Couchsurfing is one of the best things I've ever tried in my life. I cherish all people I met along the way. I'm grateful to have met all those amazing people along the way. I learned a lot from both good and bad memories. I try to be a good guest and a good friend.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Working at a tech startup is definitely one of the craziest decision in my life. I mean, I majored in literature in the uni.

Keeping a illustrated journal for my life as an exchange student in the Netherlands.

Teach, Learn, Share

Let me show you how to make simple but delicious Chinese food, and let me sing you some Taiwanese indies if you like music. I'm traveling with my baby guitar.

I like to learn the similarities and differences between cultures and people. Listening to people from different places can be very enlightening because I get to see things through different frames.

Recommend me good books/bands if you can. :)
