Hello! I am a selfstudying (homeschool) student from Taipei, Taiwan. I'm currently taking a gap year from finishing high school. I hope travelling will expand my worldview and connect me with people who have different backgrounds and stories (yes that's you!) I love pizza 🍕 and shaved ice

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I hope to find a more genuine way of connecting with different people and their culture, one that is more meaningful than the tourist approach to travel.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

Favorite movie:

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Telling my parents, "I have something to tell you tomorrow, at breakfast."
The next day: "I am quitting school."

The amazing thing is that they believed in me, and allowed me to apply to homeschooling.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I can share my culture and background, how I selfstudy, and maybe teach you a few simple phrases of the languages I have learned!

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I can help with chores, offer a helping hand in the kitchen, draw a portrait of your cat, or offer you a very good reading list / podcast playlist to devour. Or we can simply relax, exchange ideas and questions, and share some interesting conversations. Let's have a good time together!
