About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've made a lot of friends through CS while I was travelling in Europe in 2011 and 2012. After I went back to Taiwan, I enjoyed showing people around in Taipei, I loved exploring my city with travellers as this allowed me to look at my city from a different perspective. I used to have a few language exchanges whilst I was in Paris and Taipei.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

couchsurfed in Prague/ Bologna/ Paris. haven't hosted anyone directly through Couch Request, but have occasionally hosted new friends who were travellers or exchange students at my parent's house. I love showing friends around in the places where they're interested in knowing and exploring, have met up with a few CSer for drink and conversation, I love to see and understand the world through other people's eyes.
