This was such a fun episode! Thanks for being on the pod, Ashley and sharing your story. Especially as someone still figuring out their career, it's so cool to see what opportunities happen when you put yourself out there!
It would be nice if Ashley can introduce herself in mandarin hehe :) Being able to get in touch with our Asian heritage is truly a blessing. 下次你們可以用國語聊天試試看, 多看台灣偶像劇會對學國語有幫助唷, 加油!
It's great to hear that Ashley found peace in hanging out with herself while in Taiwan. But is that something that will revert back after returning to the US? Asian countries like Japan and Taiwan foster a type of culture that pushes people to do things on their own and be independent from a very young age. It is must more normalized there. However, unfortunately, America doesn't really have that same culture. When people go out by themselves in the US, they call it "a date with myself for the day." In other countries, it's just a normal Saturday.
