Notes From Abroad

Studying abroad in Taiwan was an experience I will never forget. I was enrolled in one Chinese language course. In that one class, I made friends from Japan, Thailand, Russia, Austria, and many other countries. It was an unforgettable trip being surrounded by so many cultures different from my own. There are so many things to do in the Capital of Taipei, but only a short ride on the high-speed train will have you on the other side of the country. No city I went to was the same. There are so many great places that I have still yet to visit, but I can not wait to go back!
