Welcome to Part 1 of my interview with Beverly Liu, the host of "Friday Happy Hour in Formosa", an inspiring English-language show aired on Taiwan's National Education Radio (NER).
It was originally aired on July 22, 2022 on the NER and published as episode 21 of the eponymous show on Apple Podcast.
In this interview, I talk about:
🌎 How I experienced cultural shock in France, Jordan and China.
🌎 Why and how I moved to China.
🌎 What it’s like to be an au-pair in China.
🌎 How I decided I hated Paris and dropped out of law school.
🌎 How I lived in Prague for free for 4 months after a stranger offered me his cozy flat.
🌎 How I landed a residential position with a royal billionaire family.
🌎 How I hopped on a plane and moved to Portugal during the pandemic without a plan.
🌎 How I got locked out of China and separated from the entirety of my belongings during covid and how I then eventually retrieved them thanks to complete strangers after 27 months of leading a minimalist lifestyle.
🌎 How I wasn’t invited to my own graduation ceremony after I finished my Master’s degree at the “Chinese Harvard” and why I am still waiting for the degree certificate 5 months later.
🌎 How I eventually made it to Taiwan. Or maybe not yet — that’s coming in Part 2! Stay tuned! 🤪
