I am an introvert who loves to explore and understand culture and people. I am what is referred to 1.5 generation in US, having lived first 12 years in Taiwan and rest in US. I have an even mixed product of eastern and western culture.

The more I travel, the more I realize everyone is more similar than different, despite where you are from. Even if one doesn't travel, in the era we are living now, we have the opportunities to meet/work with people from all over the world.
I'm interested in learning how to communicate to resolve conflict between people who are focusing on the differences than similarities.

教，学，和分享

I love to learn languages and I love food.
I am no expert, but I can share some simple recipes for Chinese food and teach Mandarin and English.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I can share with you what is the best way to take care of (serve) cats, including what to feed, raw vs canned vs kibbles, how to calculate nutritional analysis for cat food...etc.
Ok, I'm joking...but not really.

I can share with you my perspectives on Eastern and Western culture, having lived in Taiwan and currently residing in US. I used to live in Georgia (the state in US) but moved to San Francisco 2 years ago. I can also share the difference of West and East Coast in US.
I speak both Mandarin and English fluently and would love to teach/converse with you.
I love to eat but i'm an average cook, but I can cook some simple Chinese dish if you would like to try.
