About Me

Taiwanese, 21-year-old undergraduate, major in history. Started my one-year Parisienne exchange student life since August, 2014.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm always fascinated by stories, and the most beautiful stories always come from people's lives. I love to listen to others' stories, and also try to be a good story-teller. Traveling is a wonderful way to create new stories. At the same time, making new friends during traveling is a chance for me to enjoy more stories. The best thing is, at the end, we all become part of each other's story.

Music, Movies, and Books

-movies: Blue Gate Crossing ( Yee Chin-yen, 2002), I Am David (Paul Feig, 2003), A Touch of Spice ( Tassos Boulmetis, 2003), Juno ( Jason Reitman, 2007), The Perks of Being a Wallflower (Stephen Chbosky, 2012), The Winter of the Year was Warm (David Cho, 2012), Before Midnight ( Richard Linklater, 2013), About Time ( Richard Curtis, 2013)...

-books: errr, even more harder. I can't do this. This is the first one I came up with: The Tender Bar by J.R. Moehringer, 2005. If I continue, it would be like 60 pages long so I'd rather stop here kk
