I'm Lin, 28 this year, from Taiwan, a small island in Eastern Asia.

I looooove traveling and adventures. For me the best part of traveling is having the chances to meet new friends from different backgrounds and cultures. Exchanging life experiences and perspectives, what else could be more inspiring and make us feel connected?

Friends often say I’m flexible, spontaneous, curious and full of energy. As a typical Taiwanese, I am definitely a foodie and like to cook as well. Also I enjoy any kind of sensory experience from techno parties to art gallery🤓🤓

And for this year, after saying it for five years, I’m finally having my gap year since this May!!! I can share Taiwanese culture and my traveling stories with you. I learned some calligraphy, and it’s always a pleasure to write something meaningful for my friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Tbh, it’s actually pretty nice to have different backpackers as guests in my boring daily life 🤣 while showing them our country and culture, I get a chance to know my own culture a bit more at the same time. In return, I get to know the world a little bit more. Not to mention those amazing people I met ☺️☺️☺️

Teach, Learn, Share

Love to exchange thoughts about family, love, life, religion, and all those what make us…..people?
So many time I experienced that we’re so distant, but somehow connected to each other by some same life style or relatable culture.
