I Don't live in Taiwan, I live in Ireland!!!

My name is Dillon, I'm currently 20 years old and in September I'll be studying Information Technology in Dublin, Ireland. I'm looking to meet new people, learn about their culture and language and have a good time with them! My main interests are Japanese Art and Culture, Video Games and Movies. I love movies by Alfred Hitchcock, Takeshi Kitano, Makoto Shinkai, Stanley Kubrick and Quentin Tarantino!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm here so that I can experience other people's language and culture. My main goal is to be able to speak Japanese fluently and I believe that living with a Japanese person will help me in achieving that dream!
