About Me

CURRENT MISSION
On the way to the world

ABOUT ME
Travel over 50 countries around the world in different ways. It is always great to have more interaction with local hosts via couchsurfing. From July 2019 to June 2020, I am experiencing my digital namad life among Europe, South America, USA, and New Zealand.

Traveling is great adventure for me. I pretty much enjoy meeting new friends from different countries and having interaction with locals. My firends always tell me that I am with open mind to approach new things and changes in my life. So I am still fascinated in traveling.

PHILOSOPHY

I have a dream that one day...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

LOVE slow travel! I did 7 months working holiday in Australia. After Australia, I got my master degree in Milan, Italy for 1.5 yrs from 2007. I started with hosting CS guests in Milan.Then I surfed couches during my 2007 summer trip in Europe.

After graduation from MBA in Italy,I went back my lovely hometown Taipei in 2008 July. It is a little bit difficult for me to travel around because of work, so I host CS guests instead. At that time, I had a guest room in my flat to host guest in Taipei. It is my pleasure to host CS friends or let people know more about Taipei: walk guest around Taipei's famous temples, museums, 24 hours bookshops....also Definitely guests have go to the night markets to eat some Taiwanese traditional food and drink some nice Taiwan Beer, big Taiwanese fried chicken or Pearl Milk Tea (Bubble Tea)!

In 2012 and 2013, I took a long break and traveled to 28 countries around the world in 10 months and but only stay with 2 to 3 couches.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My CS experience is great:
I host some CS surfers in Milan Italy, when I was studying there in 2007. I traveled around Europe for 5 weeks by couchsurfing way in 2007 summer. In this trip, I visited Zurich, Munich, Vienna, Brusells, Frankfurt, Berlin, Paris, Barcelona, Valencia, and Madrid. It's a fantasic trip, I met a lot of new CS firends and had lots fun.

After I went back Taipei in 2008. I host guests from India,Germany,USA,Switzerland,Demark,New Zealand, Australia,Japan, Colombia etc.@ Taipei.

Also I couch surfed @ Malaysia and Sri Lanka in Asia and in Mexico.
