第一次,一個人!



陳可萱,平凡人,走自己的路。

「渴望流浪的心,不安分的靈魂。」大學時期開始發現自己可以靠雙腳走得很遠很遠,於是­開始嘗試從舒適圈出走。

獨自一人單車環島,和許多生命對話,也和自己的心對話;前進越­南當國際志工,學習面對恐懼,去做自己曾經害怕的事;深受台灣之美所吸引,因而走入山­林、探訪古道、徒步中橫。

2011年因為一個保護雨林的約定而踏上未知的旅途,隻身前往婆羅洲熱帶雨林,在曾是­獵人頭族的原住民部落住了一個月,為了找尋傳說中的鳳凰--百眼雉雞。離開時帶了一百­多個蚊蟲及棘刺植物留下的痕跡,同時也帶回了雨林中訴說著不同語言的深刻情感。



Coco Chen is a normal person, but she refuses someone to make arrangements for her future.

She has wandering soul, leaving her comfort zone and trying something she never done before. She rode a bicycle to travel alone around Taiwan Island. Without specific purpose, she just opened her mind to make new friends and listened to her heart. Also, she ever went to Vietnam for being an International volunteer, challenging herself to overcome her fear.

In 2011, Coco Chen went to Borneo alone to act up to her promise to serve as a volunteer for protecting the rain-forest. She stayed in the rain-forest and lived with aboriginal rain-forest people, Iban, who practiced head-hunting in historic times. Trying to find Great Argus Peasant, which is a kind of endemic species in Borneo, she endured insect and mosquito bites, and getting wounds on her skin by Thorns. Finally, she left Borneo with some record about the special species and Iban; she got a precious friendship as well.
