About us
Welcome to Taichung Wild & Cultured — a small, genuine community for people who love both the outdoors and the finer things in life.
We are a local Taichung couple — an artist and tea enthusiast whose father is a senior tea master, and an outdoor sports entrepreneur. We started this group because we love meeting people from different parts of the world and sharing what we know about Taiwan — the wild side and the cultured side.
What we do:
We organize small, intimate gatherings where real conversations happen. No big crowds, no awkward networking. Just good people, good food, and good experiences.
Our events include:
🍵 Tea afternoons — rare Taiwanese high mountain oolong brewed at home, paired with snacks from around the world
🏕️ Outdoor adventures — hiking, camping, rock climbing, fishing, and pickleball around Taichung and beyond
🎨 Arts & culture exchanges — music, art, traditional Chinese culture including tea ceremony and kunqu opera
🌏 Casual hangouts — good food, good conversation, and genuine connection
Who this is for:
Anyone curious about Taiwan beyond the tourist trail — and anyone who wants to meet locals and internationals in a relaxed, English-friendly setting.
This is not a language exchange. This is not a class. This is just life, shared.
Come as you are. Bring your stories. We'll brew the tea. 🌿

Lost in a Hard Season? Ancient Eastern Wisdom Might Have the Words You Need
·OnlineOnlineHave you ever felt lonely during a difficult season of your life?
Have you ever wished to explore your inner world through the wisdom of Eastern beauty?
I'm an artist and healing coach with a PhD in Eastern Aesthetics. Over the years, I've helped more than a thousand students find peace and joy through classical Chinese paintings and poetry.
I'm visually impaired and have undergone seven surgeries. Through it all, color and pattern became my path back to life . They didn't just help me heal, they gave me a new way of seeing.
If Chinese isn't your first language, this ancient wisdom may have always felt out of reach. I'm now opening a small space to bring the depth of Eastern philosophy and beauty to you in English, with no need to read or speak Chinese.
What to expect:
Each week, I'm offering two 1-on-1 sessions, 45 minutes each. Bring whatever is on your heart, a feeling, a difficulty, a question you've been sitting with.
And I'll offer reflections and inspiration drawn from classical Eastern patterns, poems, and paintings, connected to what you're going through.
This is a space to be heard, not to be fixed.
