I'm a nice person, willing to talk and share, but if you'd like to be quiet and enjoy personal space, I could stay alone. I always keep everything clean- do dishes, clean the bathrooms, make less garbage. I don't drink and go to parties, the only thing I do in the evening is going to supermarkets to buy ingredients for dinner, and then go to hostels (or host's house) to cook.

I enjoy every moment traveling, and desire to know more about every place. I usually stay in hostels, eat like locals and go by foot. During these months, I learn independence and simplicity- traveling alone with only a backpack.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There are two reasons: First, when I used Airbnb, I found sleeping in a local's house was totally different from that in hostels. The house could be special and full of local styles, and the host (though I did pay for the stay) could provide many info and experience of a resident.

Second, I'm really running out of many, but I still have many places on the waiting list. My plane ticket leaving to Taiwan is in the end of June, so I don't have so such time. Therefore, I want to save money on accommodation to travel more.

In these two months, I plan to go to Spain (Madrid, Bilbao, Barcelona, Granada), Italy (Rome, Bologna, La spezia), Poland (Krakow, Warsaw, Gdansk), France (Paris, Lyon), Switzerland (Zurich). And I still have half month without any plans, if you have any advice you can send it to me. :)

What I Can Share with Hosts
