About Me

29 years old, independent yet a bit Asian shy. I'm from Taiwan. I spent a couple of years living and studying in France. Currently running my own business and am based in Reykjavik, Iceland. Would love to squeeze time to meet awesome people :)

--
I went to many Asian countries when I was a little kid with my family, but honestly I couldn't remember anything.
I went to New Zealand to study for a while in 2007.
I worked in Starbucks in New Jersey, USA in the summer of 2009.
I was an exchange student in Aix-en-provence, France in 2010, and I traveled alone and a lot during this period.
In 2011, I went to South Korea for travelling twice.
In 2012, I went back to Europe to have a two-week-holiday in April.
From August 2012, I'm living and studying in Lyon, France.
In 2015, I went to Reykjavik, Iceland for my internship.
In 2016, I decided to settle down in Iceland.

I love art, graphic design, painting, reading and learning new languages, enjoy nice music and movies:) My previous travel experiences allow me to become a more mature person than my peers. I love meeting people from the world and always ready to take new challenges in life.

Teach, Learn, Share

"There is nothing more fulfilling to me than the sounds of a new city, the traditions of an alternative culture, the flavors of a different cuisine, and the melody of an unfamiliar language. Meeting interesting and diverse people around the world, connecting with them and learning about their perspective on how to live life has enriched my life and my knowledge of the world in a way that words cannot express.
