Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite music is a Taiwanese band called No party for Cao Dong. It is a indie rock band and it is amazing. I also like to listen to a lot of pop, electronic and jazz music. If you have any your favorite band or music, please suggest it to me!

My favorite movie is Inception, cause I really like the concept of sneaking into someone else's dream.
I also like to watch American series, like Game of Throne, House of card and so on.

Since I really love to read, it's quite hard for me to choose wich one is my favorite.
But genres of books I like are sci-fi, fantasy, history, business, and autobiography.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have started a project which aims to help a community that has rare population and only elders and children live there because the local economy is too bad.
Since it once was the biggest mining city in my country, we exploit this history heritage and come up with a travel package which tries to let the people come to this neighborhood and interact with the local residence to know the precious history.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share about the tricky political situation that Taiwan faced, especially about the relationship between Taiwan and China, and also the history background of these relationship.

I want to learn more about the customs and interesting facts that only the local people know, and maybe
