My first semester abroad: Taipei, Taiwan. What is to be my “home” for the semester actually feels a lot more like home than I expected. The people, the food, the scenes that I see and feel are surprisingly familiar, a unique twist on the South Korea that I grew up in. Here are some snapshots displaying the interconnections be- tween these two countries. My home may be a sea away, but I’m finding that home can really be found everywhere.







“Rice, soup, and side dishes – feels like home”

“They call it an omelet, I call it a burrito.”

“Only if life was as ordered as these motorcycles.” 

“I see you, Samsung.”
