Life is too short to be serious!

I like to do videos during my travel time, beside having a good memory, i believe making videos/ taking photos are the only souvenir that can last long and forever... maybe until the end of life! isn't that great!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Travel like a boss 😆 live as a local.

Everyone will have their own defination on TRAVEL. Travel like a local for me is regardless how many touristic places that I"ve visited / how many great monuments that I've been taking photos with, but it's about how well a person knows, feels the country, the places.

We can't truely feel the country the culture of the country by just reading books or taking photos with the building, but.. interact with the local, be a part of the local DO.

I really love to meet a lot of people from different background, places ... share bout our thoughts for different things .. cz sometime the answer can be amazing and you never thought of!

The world is so big, 7.6 billions of population, that's really really an amazing and interesting thing if we do have a chance to meet each other from different places.

The most interesting fact is... we ever know, maybe the first time meeting will be the last time meeting until we die or. . maybe that could be a new starting of a story... ?

'No matter how. .. the fact is, the memories that we have created with the host/surfer /the local already last long in our mind and become memories ... perhaps the memories will be the best souvenir for every travel instead of buying the local key chain . 😄

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spend more than 2 year to travel to different countries during and after finishing my study. 2months volunteer teaching in China, half year internship working with a travel company, 3 month working holiday in Australia and work and travel in USA for 4months, working in Beijing for half year, work exchange at Korea (seoul, busan) for 2 months anf back to taiwan for a month.

Instead of staying in a country for just a few days, become a tuourist taking photos with the places and going back home , I prefer to become a local, interact with the local, having meal with the local, create memories with the local.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach -
Imma broadcasting student, maybe i can teach you how to take and edit a good photo/video. I love to make videos and take photos with the people I met.
I don't really believe my memories that can last for so long. Photos and videos are the best evidence to record down every important moment in my life.

language -
I can teach you Mandarin/Cantonese and also teach you how to sing in our language! it's fun and easy to learn and that's what i always teach my foreign friends. “Rasa sayang sayang hey'' 👻

Learn-
'Live as you were to die tomorrow. Learn as if you were to live forever.”
The world is so big and we have a lot of things that still need to learn from people around me, the more people we met the more we will learn.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can cook some of my local food for you. 😆 I can share my time for you if you need help on doing housework
