About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Discover the goodness in human beings

ABOUT ME

I grew up in a small southern city in Taiwan and went to Taipei for my BA degree. I used to work as a coordinator at Cross-Culture center at the university I graduated from for a year or so, then decided to take on a different route in a business industry, thus I landed on an import and export field. After that, I decided to study abroad, therefore I ended up staying in Minnesota for some good years.
As you can imagine, I am quite independent and sensitive about my surroundings, which was trained by my father, who was a retired soldier. I consider myself as a neat, considerate and organized person and respect others greatly. If you ever need help around the house or anything, I would be happy to give a hand. I would love to cook for you if there's a chance for that.

Above all forementioned detail, I have great common sense :-)) You will be amazed how many people lack of common sense in this era ^___^

Too much mumbling about myself, hope to meet friendly CSers and thank you for welcoming me with open arms.

PHILOSOPHY

What makes life so interesting? I would say that people's willingness to accept others makes our world more fun and meaningful to live in. Not coming from a rich family, I'm glad to have such an organization like this to fulfill people like me to be able to experience different cultures and befriend people from all parts of the world.

Doing good things and being thankful at all time. Learning to laugh it off.
