Hi there! My name is Tsung Chieh (Stefan) and I am currently living in Singapore.
I am a Taiwanese who grew up in Singapore and went to Darmstadt, Germany for uni exchange in 2013. After the wonderful experience there, I am motivated to explore the world further to get the most out of life!

I am open-minded and enjoys immersing in different cultures, travelling during the holidays and exploring natural scenery when possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Culture exchange, meeting and chatting with people and be inspired by anything possible!
I think that Couchsurfing provides a suitable platform to get to meet locals who knows more than the typical major attractions which travel brochures always include. Besides, short and in-depth trips will only give one more reasons to revisit the place.

Interests

Teach, Learn, Share

From the Erasmus experience in Darmstadt, it is always fascinating to learn about the host country and fellow friends from around the world! Since then, I have been giving uni and city tours for exchange students in the university and to visiting colleagues in my current company. I can tell you stories about Singapore and even teach you some basic Mandarin if you like.
