About Me

I am a big fan of my work, and I believe what I am doing benefits the society to some extent.
I am currently a CEO in a NPO, which is related to social enterprise, in addition, I am also a founder & curator in Performance Arts.
I was studying in the UK, with a Master degree in Intercultural Communication Studies at University of East Anglia. It's a subject related to cultural studies and how people are affected by cultural surroundings.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am a one of the residents in the global village, so neighborhoods are welcomed with no doubt.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted four people so far, while surfing 9 times.
I tried hitch-hiking several times at Isle of Skye and Penzence. Both couch-surfing and hitch-hiking are probably the most two amazing things in my journey. I met people that I have never met and learn new viewpoints that I have never heard. It's actually a very good method of surveying and observing neighborhoods, haha.
The most wonderful thing is I have friends from all over the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was the founder and leader of two voluntary student organizations, led 50 student
volunteers, hosting more than 40 arts and culture events, performing to thousands.
I completed six projects (my colleagues were able to complete 2 or 3 projects) in
one year, and each project gained millions in profit (NT dollars) for the company.

Teach, Learn, Share
