About Me

ABOUT ME

I’ve live in Germany since 2017. My German experience started at 2013 as an exchange student, then 2017-2021 as an industrial PhD student, and then now work in semiconductor industry as a development engineer. Travel style changed from budget backpacker to solo traveller with a slow, relaxed spirit…as I become more financially comfortable and more…aged(!?).

There is one thing never change, that is to spend my time with local and do as local do, or at least hang out with travellers together, see which chance I get. I found that most of my impressive travel experience are coming without plans, theis motivated myself from an organized traveller to a casual, traveller without fixed schedules.

Apart from that, I am very much into international political discussions, due to the fact that I am a Taiwanese hehe. Would like to know all kinds of perspectives for topics such as countries, refugees, immigrants, left/right political spectrums, labor, history…basically all!

PHILOSOPHY
Mountains never meet but people do.
The saying I learned during my volunteer work in Tanzania.
