ABOUT ME

I enjoy looking at things from different perspectives. That's why I travel and meet people. I bring with me a genuine Taiwanese and Chinese cultural background. I know traditional fortuntelling, Taiwanese puppet shows and many things that are culturally specific to Taiwan. Contact me if you'd like to know more about Taiwan.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being me

Teach, Learn, Share

I enjoy cooking, so as long as there's a kitchen for use, I can always prepare Taiwanese food. The food I can usually (not always, depending on availability of materials) prepare for my host or guest include traditional Chinese nutritious soup, bubble/pearl (milk) tea, etc. I'm a Buddhist so know some basics to Zen meditation and am familiar with central Buddhist doctrines. I like Taiwanese puppet shows and can teach you traditional Chinese board games. I also enjoy sharing things about Taiwanese politics, Taiwanese concept of love and gender, and many things that are culturally specific to Taiwan.
