Hi! my name is Wei Chen Peng; you can call me Wei.

I was born in Hualien, eastern city of Taiwan, which is the most beautiful place in Taiwan. I stayed in Hualien until 15 years old. After that I made up my mind to live alone and to study in the capital city of Taiwan, that is－Taipei; so actually I lived in Taipei for 8 years. (2020 March－Current I'm living in Hualien)

My major in university is radio and television , and I double major in digital content and technology, minor in Arabic language and culture. It's seems like I'm good at doing these things; but honestly, that's not ture! I just love to challenge new things and try whatever I think it interesting.

So far, I found out two things that I love to do. One is to be a volunteer, the other is to be an actor. Since 2015, I already been to many places for volunteering. These traveling experiences make me brave enough to know about the world by different ways.

Now I try to focus on my acting, movies and other communication professions. Sometimes I join the stage drama show in Taiwan; and I love it so much. Besides that, I had a part-time job in Television Service in Taiwan. There're some chances to have a interview while demonstration in Taipei. If you are interested in some social issues in Taiwan; you could discuss with me.

Anyway, there're still a lot of things to let you know. I love to have great food, to go to movie, to sleep.......etc

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Instead of having a trip with luxurious hotel and comfortable schedule, traveling with adventure is more attractive. That's why I choose to have volunteering trips and working holiday. And now it's time to live with local people and make friends !
