Description
Hi I am Connie! I am from Taiwan. I am a English major in university and studying in documentary production since last year in master school.
I am very into different cultures which makes me a traveler no matter abroad or in Taiwan. I used to do exchange program in the U.S. for a year and traveled to latin America for 16 months, doing workaway at lots of towns and villages in all kinds of tasks. I am a people person that I enjoy talking to people from different backgrounds and listening to their stories.
My interest including music, art and outdoor activities. I play guitar and love singing. I make films and enjoy living nearby the nature. I speak Chinese, English and Spanish, and also interested in learning more languages.
My value towards life is to experience all the new things and be curious all the time. Some friends say I feel like a kids sometimes because I enjoy playing around and being wild sometimes.
As a master student I decided to spend my summer vacation(July, August 2024) in 2 asian countries (Thai, Viet ) that I was always curious about and tried to know more about the culture, the people and the food:) Trying to inspire myself from ancient stories and beautiful wisdom in world that I have not ever seen. I am open-minded for all kinds of things as a documentary producer>

I stayed for a week here, It's before semana santa so we're kinda in rush to finish some construction. i painted the wall of an old house for 5 days and I got breakfast at 7:30 everyday.

A chill hostel near the center Pisac. I spent one week here and the working hour is clear that allowed me to visit the cute town. We are 7 girls volunteers and I worked as reception and cleaning the rooms sometimes, too. The rooftop is amazing and the common area has big TV to hang out and watch Netlfix.

The most enjoyable thing for me here is to prepare food with Hernan! Everyday we’ll have a big tasty vegetarian lunch. I got to learn a lot about homemade peruvian food with Hernan. I did not spend too many days here because I don’t really like the fact that it’s far from the center and the dorm for volunteers is a bit~~~unorganized. But the… read more
