Hi, I'm Ruby. I’m from Taiwan. My real name is Pei-Ju Hsu. I prefer to use my nickname because my Chinese name is too difficult for people to pronounce or memorize. I’m studying in a language school in Chicago now. Before Chicago, I stayed in San Francisco for three months, and had a wonderful experience there. I also stayed in Boston for one and half months. I've been to USA for about an year and half. I went to a lot of cities in USA and I want to explore more about this amazing place. I really enjoy traveling here. I hope next trip will be wonderful.😄

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to meet people from all over the world and learn new things about different cultures and lifestyles.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like all kinds of music, such as, Jazz, blues, RnB, soul music, etc. When I was in San Francisco, I listened a lot of reggae tone because I met many friends from South America. That was my first time know what reggae is. Now I’m in Chicago, I really enjoy Jazz music here.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I quit my job and came to America in April, 2017. That was my first time going out of Taiwan. I saved money for years because I’ve always wanted to come to America since I was a child. I visited many cities in America within one year. I had the best year in my life.
