About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel around exploring the world and learn from different ways of life!!

ABOUT ME
I'm curious about everything, open-minded. I like to observe and think.
I'm easy going and smiling all the time.
Sometimes I don't talk too much cause I like to listen to people's story and think.
I worked as project manager in an NGO conducting international volunteer project in China, India, Nepal, Cambodia and the Philippines. I loved this job because it combined my passion in helping others and my interest in traveling.

PHILOSOPHY

Thoreau said, "If a man loses pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured, or far away."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm quite new in CS and only couchsurfed two times. The hosts were all great and friendly. I really like the idea of CS. It's a good place to make friends, learn more about their country and exchange different thoughts from different point of view. Also I'd love to provide couch when I get back to Taiwan!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I quit my job and now I'm traveling on Silk Road. It's been 5 months from China, Tajikistan and now in India!! During the trip, I did things that I never think of, such as cycling and hiking through 4000meter-high mountains, hitchhiking, working in hostels...
