《My Blossoming Taiwan》

    One of the reasons that made me choose Taiwan as my destination for studying PhD was the Taiwanese spring. Because of the COVID-19 pandemic, I, together with my friends, had a chance to fully experience the Taiwanese spring, which was full of peace, beauty, and pureness. No matter where we will go, we all will never forget this precious moment.

《Taiwan and the Pleasures of Commuting》

I love commuting, maybe a little biased, it really makes me happy whether I walk, ride a bike, take a bus or train from someplace to another. Perhaps it’s because of the beautiful scenery or the cozy atmosphere, but in short, I enjoy commuting in Taiwan the most.
