PHILOSOPHY

Life is short, why not enjoy it.
Offer my best to the world so my life is worth it.

"He dies slowly.
He dies slowly the one who does not travel, who does not read, who does not listen to music,
the one who does not know how to find favor in his eyes.

He dies slowly,the one who destroys his self-love, the one who never accepts to be helped.

He dies slowly, the one who becomes the slave of habit, repeating every day the same paths,the
one who never changes landmark, the one who never risks to change the color of his clothes
or never talks to a stranger.

He dies slowly, the one who avoids passion and whirlwind of emotions, those that bring light into the eyes and repair injured hearts.

He dies slowly, the one who does not change his direction when unhappy at work or in love,
the one who does not take risks to achieve his dreams, the one who, never once in his life, has fled the sound advice.

Now live! Risk yourself today! Act now! Do not let yourself die slowly!
Do not deprive yourself to be happy. " (Pablo Neruda)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting, surfing, meeting, .... and I wrote two books to promote CS. ( Talking about CS on TV, Radio, and to lots of magazines in Taiwan and China. )

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love couchsurfing, and that's why I wrote two books about it! ( In Chinese, published in Taiwan and in China. )

I like to cook or give massage ( and to receive ), and exchange my culture in return of the favor of my hosts. I made a lot of good friends and know lots of things that I never read on travel guide books through Couchsurfing.
I have also hosted a lot of travelers in Taiwan and in Paris.
I appreciate what my hosts and my guests gave me, and would like to pay it forward.
