About Me

Born in Taiwan, immigrated to Canada at a young age. I've always loved going to new place and meeting nice people. Loves animals and nature. Play some video games and badminton. Have always done backpacking, so no couchsurfing experience at all. Will have my first surfing experience in 2018. Don't know what else to tell you. Just a simple, maybe nerdy guy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Prefer not just sightseeing, but also experience the culture. Staycation instead of vacation. Meet like-minded people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Saved someone's life

Teach, Learn, Share

I am learning how to forgive, and pass no judgement. Want to learn Buddhism.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Perhaps my travel experiences. Having living in both Taiwan and Canada for a long time, I may know a bit about eastern and western culture. And generally some good conversations. I'm interested in all kinds of things. I read all the time. I can share the rent for the days I'm staying.

Australia, Cambodia, China, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Malaysia, Singapore, South Korea, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, United Arab Emirates, United States, Uzbekistan
