Descripción
Hi! I’m Yuling from Taiwan. I moved to Thailand about 10 years ago, and Bangkok is now my second home.
I used to work in the travel-tech industry, leading localization teams and building automation to reduce repetitive work, so people could focus on more meaningful things. In 2021, I decided to step away from that pace to slow down, reconnect with everyday life, and fix long-term sleep issues.
Now, I enjoy cooking, gardening whenever I can, and finding meaningful ways to connect with local communities.
One day, I hope to open a small guesthouse filled with good meals, greenery, handmade details, and relaxed vibes. To prepare for that dream, I’m currently seeking volunteer opportunities to get inspired and exchange knowledge and skills.
Before joining Workaway, I helped at guesthouses in Japan with cooking, cleaning, gardening, and daily routines — basically anything that helps create a warm, comfortable home.
I’m independent, easygoing, and enjoy contributing through simple, practical support. I love creating calm, welcoming spaces through food, plants, and shared daily life.
I’m especially interested in projects related to cooking, hospitality, nature, or community life. If your place values good energy and good food, I’d be happy to be part of it.

Algo más...
When I travel, I naturally gravitate toward fresh markets, flea markets, and antique shops, places with soul and a story to tell. I enjoy quietly observing and capturing small moments through photography.
I practice Ashtanga yoga and, although I’m still a beginner, I’ve found it very supportive for both body and mind. I also enjoy hiking and spending time in nature, which helps me stay grounded and connected.
I’m dyslexic, which explains why I’ve always been drawn to hands-on and visual experiences. School wasn’t always easy for me, but over time I’ve come to see it as a gift. It’s shaped how I learn, create, and connect with the world.
I also self-study flower arranging, enjoy all kinds of crafts and hands-on making.
I use social media lightly and post only a few times a year. I prefer staying present and investing my time in real-life experiences, meaningful conversations, and genuine connections.
I currently work as a freelance translator, so I’m usually online from 9 AM to 5 PM (EST), which is around 2 PM to 10 PM in Europe.

As a volunteer, she was incredibly involved, quick to learn, always ready to help, and not afraid of hard work. And she loves cooking, truly. Even when there was no need to cook, she was happily experimenting in the kitchen. Whoever hosts her next will be treated to amazing Asian dishes.
