About Me

I’ve lived in many places in Taiwan since I was a kid, so I’ve always enjoyed exploring new environments and meeting people. My passions include photography, aerial drones, scuba diving, freediving, RC stunt helicopters, music production, event planning, and sound engineering.

I started flying RC helicopters in elementary school and quickly got into competitions, winning national and international awards. In middle school, I also started aerial photography before drones were common, flying fully manually without GPS!

During high school and college, I continued to work in drones and music. I’ve interned with TV production teams, worked as a film production assistant, and helped organize concerts and music festivals. I was also the president of my university graduation committee, responsible for large events (we had to cancel one 5,000-person festival due to COVID, but it was a great learning experience!).

After graduation, I helped a university professor build a coffee brand, ran a fruit-and-vegetable business in Hsinchu, and worked as an intern tour guide in Cebu, Philippines. I even got back into drones for a military-related project.

I’ve also done three work-exchange (WWOOF/hostel) experiences:
Surf school & hostel in Hualien (housekeeping, guest reception, surf guidance)
Scooter rental in Liuqiu (rentals, guest pickup, scooter cleaning, diving with guests)
Part-time at a MOS Burger airport branch (kitchen work, independent handling of busy shifts)

我從小就住過很多地方，所以很喜歡探索新環境和認識新朋友。我喜歡攝影、航拍、潛水（含自由潛水）、遙控特技直升機、音樂製作、活動企劃和錄音。

我從小學開始接觸遙控直升機，參加各類比賽並獲得國內外獎項。國中時開始航拍，那時 DJI 空拍機還不普及，我在全手動飛行下完成學校航拍，也曾被報社報導。

高中與大學期間，我持續在無人機和音樂領域發展。曾在電視劇組、電影製片助理工作，也參與多場音樂會與音樂祭的製作。我也曾是大學畢聯會會長，負責大型活動規劃與總製作。

畢業後，我協助教授打造咖啡品牌、經營蔬果品牌，並在菲律賓宿霧擔任實習導遊，有實際帶團經驗。後來也回到無人機領域參與軍用項目。

我曾有三次打工換宿經驗：
花蓮衝浪學校 & 青年旅館（房務、接待、陪衝浪）
小琉球機車行（租車、接送、清理、潛水陪同）
摩斯漢堡機場店（一年內場工作，獨立處理各項餐飲任務）

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Why Couchsurfing?

I love meeting new people and exchanging stories from around the world. I’m also a snowboard enthusiast and hope to improve my skills while traveling. I’m happy to help host guests, drive, or assist in any way I can. I have experience driving in Japan (Tokyo & Osaka) and hold a professional passenger license—so whether it’s a 9-seater van or even a small bus, I’m comfortable driving.

I enjoy adventures, diving, music, and photography, and I love connecting with travelers from all over

為什麼想用 Couchsurfing？

我喜歡與人互動、交換旅遊故事。我也很想練習單板滑雪，並願意幫忙接待或開車支援。我在日本有開車經驗（東京河口湖、大阪騎重機），持有職業駕照，能駕駛9人座車。

我喜歡冒險、潛水、音樂與攝影，也喜歡與來自世界各地的旅人交流

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I once asked someone I had just met if they wanted to go to Hualien, and we ended up going together. I even went surfing in Hualien for 13 days straight with a Cuban friend!
