Description
I am Yu Fen (Cinzia) , an experienced workawayer. I has various experiences in France as a workawayer for a year, and now I would like to be the host while I am living in Taiwan. It's the best way of experience the travelling while being at home. I had many experience on hosting people from couchsurfing and bnb as well. I started travel with couchsurfing while I was 19 years old. If you are interested in, you could also check my profile on couchsurfing as well.
I would be happy to host you for language and culture exchange. I can speak Mandarin, English, Italian and a little bit of French. I love learning language, enjoy different cultures and cusines. If you are interested in Taiwanese culture, learning Mandarin, cooking, please feel free to contact me. Please let me know more about you and why you are interested in this workaway project. If possible I would like to have an online call to see if it's a good fit for both of us. I reply all the messages even I can not host you.
I am living in a quite and new area which is not far from Taipei city center, it's around 25 mins by metro to arrive to the Taipie Main Station. I usually work from Monday to Friday during the day. I also have many business trips to the States, Europe, Australia.We could spend time together after my work, if you would like to. I could show you around Taipei/Taiwan in my free time. You are also welcome to meet my friends, family etc. I am quite open and flexible about what we could offer and what we could do together. If there is any project or event that you would like to creat together, we could talk about that and make that happens. Let me know your ideas, we could always talk about it. If you have any questions please feel free to ask.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Would love to share with you about the Taiwanese culture and would like to know about your culture! If you are up to learn the language, culture, cusine etc. I like new ideas and try new things in my life, so if you have any ideas we could do together, that would be perfect.
Help
Basically, helping on manage the apartment, cleaning, the apartment is not huge and it's pretty clean, there are not much tasks to do, so if there is any kinds of help you would like to offer, let me know what are you good at and what you are up to! I prefer someone who is proactive, clean, enjoy cooking, creative, chill and fun. We could spend a lot of time on language exchange and culture exchange. Even creat and hold some fun small event together. If you are a digital nomad, it's a good fit also. There is good wifi at home and cozy living room.

Accommodation
I am living near by Taipei, it's an apartment with two rooms and two bathroom, one living room and one kitchen, one small balcony. You will have your own room and bathroom. We will be flat mate.
We could go shopping together for the food, you could cook yourself or we could cook together. I prefer eat together while we can, but not necessarily everyday. I could be busy sometimes. I can provide the ingredient/food, you can also buy your own food, depends on what you want. We could talk about it, or you can let me know what you are expecting. We could also hang out to eat local food/ local restaurants sometimes! As what I mentioned I am quite flexiable, please let me know if there is anything you want or you don't want. Thanks!

Before being a host, she was a workawayer herself, so she really knows how to treat a volunteer! I helped her mainly with light housechores and I had plenty of time to explore some touristic areas around Taoyuan and Taipei while I was at her's! Her apartment is very nice and it has all of the comforts you need!… read more
