About Me

I had a gap year in Brighton, England volunteering for a student with cerebral palsy.
Graduated with a Master's in Educational Studies from the University of Glasgow.
Now back to Taiwan as a lecturer for the government and colleges.
I've climbed Mt. FUJI, swam with whale sharks and traveled to 44 countries so far!
I'm laid-back and friendly.
A bit talkative when I'm excited!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I used to stay in hostels while traveling, but It's way more fun to stay with couch surfers! It's the best way to meet the locals or even make lifelong friends. :)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Open to a nice chat with strangers.
I met my husband (who was still a stranger back then) on a 15-hour flight from Amsterdam to Taipei. He sat next to me and we started to talk from the beginning of the flight to the end. He proposed to me in Venice and then we got married in Scotland.

Teach, Learn, Share

Taiwan became the first country in Asia to legalize same-sex marriage nationwide on 24 May 2019. :)
