Description
Hi! I’m Joyce from Taiwan, 24 years old. I’m passionate about traveling, creating, and meeting new people.
Currently, I’m on a working holiday in Melbourne, and before I return to Taiwan in mid-February, I’d love to spend some time in Brisbane or nearby areas while lending a helping hand.
During my student years, I interned at a nonprofit organization focused on children's welfare and a social enterprise dedicated to preserving local culture. Additionally, I worked as a helper at a brunch cafe and guesthouse in a popular coastal tourist destination in Taiwan. These experiences have given me a broader and more open perspective, as well as essential knowledge and skills as a working holiday helper, enabling me to quickly adapt to different environments.
I studied Communication and History in university and have worked as a TV journalist and editor.
I also love animals and enjoy learning about different cultures. If you’re interested in Asian culture or learning Mandarin, I’d be happy to share fascinating stories with you!Interests
