Usually, I feel like everywhere I go, people look at me like I'm the first foreigner they see, like, even now in 2022, you know.

The comparative

People are like, oh, my god, look, weiguo people, oh, my God, maybe because Taiwan is also an island, people tend to be more isolated from the rest of the world, in a sense.

So, a lot of people I met have never really traveled before.

And the ones that do travel, they usually stay with the group, like, and I feel like, where do they go?

So in Japan and Taiwanese culture can be quite similar sometimes.

So people, when I meet them, they seem to not have seen a lot of the world.

And sometimes they struggle with English as well.

So, I wish that there could be more of a connection sometimes.

Maybe that's another reason I find it hard to break into circles here, or to amass a lot of friends, yeah.
