Hello, Ni-Hao, I'm from Taiwan, a small island locates in East Asia. My name is Chaoyi, but calling me Apple is fine as well :)

Currently studying Japanese in Shiga, Japan.

I'm interested in organic farming, food waste, packaging waste, overproduction issues.

I love traveling. During the trip, I have chances to meet people from different places, and share stories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My first CS experience was in Taitung, Taiwan. I like it when people trust each other, and feel the kindness around the world. Besides, CS bring me the chance to travel deeply, by looking through the host's lifestyles and having a chat with them.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've joined a school club named "Life-Care". This club aim for helping stray dogs and cats on campus. We take care of the adorable animals, and then have them neutered. After surgery, we'll either put them back on campus, or help them find a new owner.

I have always been proud of this school club. Although the amount of stray animals around Taiwan may not decrease by now, we tried to deal with the situation little by little.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am so glad to share about recommended spot and food in Taiwan, eco-friendly lifestyle and my future goals! I wanna have my own juice bar :)
