I have been doing ballet since I was little. Besides ballet, I love other types of dance. I often take hip hop at DU. I also love reading. You can always find me with a book.

What is one thing that you are most anticipating about your study abroad experience?

I am excited to explore Taipei and the other cities in Taiwan. Taiwan is so pretty because it has a lot of mountains and beaches.

Why did you decide to study abroad? or What inspired you to study abroad?

I decided to study abroad in Taiwan because I want to immerse myself in the Chinese language so I can drastically improve my speaking skills. I want to practice my Chinese everyday, and studying abroad in Taiwan is the best way to do that. I also haven’t been to Asia, so I am excited to spend time in Taiwan.

What is something you would like the blog readers to know about you that they wouldn’t know by just looking at you?

I’m an introverted person, so if you’re looking for what the social life is here, that’s probably the area that will be most lacking in information. That being said, I’m very academically rigorous, and enjoy exploring nature and historical/culture sites, so I’ll have a lot to say about that.

What is one thing that you are most anticipating about your study abroad experience?

I’m very excited to be able to learn about Ireland while inside it, it’s a beautiful country with a rich history and culture.

Why did you decide to study abroad? or What inspired you to study abroad?

I’m a massive homebody who likes everything to stay the same as possible, and I could tell how much that was robbing me of new experiences I would enjoy. Studying abroad is a good way to push myself out of my comfort zone with the structure of school and systems to support me stopping it from being too much of a push.
