Overview
About Me
Hi Everyone!
I'm currently a masters student at National Taiwan University studying international relations and have been living in Taiwan for almost two years already.
I'm originally from the UK, but I've lived, studying and working, in Taiwan, China and Australia.
I used to work as a civil servant in Beijing, London and worked in Taipei at the British Office.
I love travelling round Taiwan, mainly on my bike, and cycling up big mountains.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I love travel and enjoy meeting those who also have a passion for it. I especially like exploring a place with those people who live there.
I'm really easy to do whatever hosts like to do. If you want to chill, go out for beers, or just hang out together, I'm happy with whatever. If you like cycling up mountains...even better!
