About Me

trying to fear less and move more

going to le guess who

I've had some not so good experiences with Couchsurfing but also some spectacular ones. and I guess I'm ready to have some faith in humanity again :p

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

to meet people I wouldn't have met otherwise (?)

I guess it's also part of my "fear less, move more" practice - to step out of the comfort zone

Music, Movies, and Books

my music taste is all over the place and constantly changing. not into genres but I'd say mostly electronic. more than happy to share my playlists :)

I love Wong Kar-Wai and Michel Gondry but also watch Hollywood stuff. been watching a lot more horrors.

recent Netflix guilty pleasure is The Blacklist

I have a bad habit of reading multiple books at the same time. currently trying to focus on The Paper Menagerie

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I used to lead Taipei walking tours in my free time

What I Can Share with Hosts

happy to talk about Taiwan and China (but only if you're interested), opinions and facts, or any random topics, really. I can teach you some classic curse words (since this seems to be the first thing people would want to learn?!) or other useful phrases in Mandarin and Taiwanese (Hokkien)
