Hi I’m Chen Shun Ying from Taiwan, you can call me Brian! I’m new to this Couchsurfing community, but I can’t wait to explore more! I like to play basketball and ice hockey, and I also like to listen to many kinds of music. Due to the interest of music, I’m currently learning to play various instruments as well as music production. Nothing amazing created yet though😅 I’m looking forward to recommending tons of talented Taiwanese artists to you guys! Academically, I like biology because it’s so intricate and it’s like magic to me. Nice to meet you all!
