Hello Everyone (大家好)

Hiya readers!

For those that do not know, my name is Jeff Chu (朱永強), and I'm a 21 year-old Canadian. I attend the University of Manitoba, pursuing a double major in Accounting and Marketing, at the Asper school of business. I absolutely adore dogs, music, and story telling (through any medium) - yes, I felt compelled to put dogs first.

Another thing I love to do is write. I used to actively blog, but quickly fell out of it. You may be wondering why I've created this blog - that's a great question!

I created this blog to document my upcoming trip to Hong Kong and Taiwan. I'll (try to) post daily and keep all you gorgeous readers up to date. I look forward to my adventure, and look forward to talking to all of you! My links to Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram can be found on the right column ->

Why am I going to Hong Kong?
Well, I'm a Canadian-born-Chinese (CBC), and this will be my first time in Asia. My mom's originally from Hong Kong, so I want to experience it firsthand, and get my bearings for when I take her there one day.
Why am I going to Taiwan?
I'm going to Taiwan, through AIESEC (AIESEC) to teach English to middle school children. My mantra is that changing someone's life doesnt have to be a big thing - it can be as simple as giving them a skill that they didn't have before, and can use in the future. I hope to change the lives of as many people as I can, as I travel about. Also, I want to experience a culture that is similar, but still unique, to Chinese (mainland) culture - language, food, traditions, etc. Did I mention Bubble Milk Tea (珍珠奶茶)?

I hope you all enjoy reading this blog as much as I enjoy writing it.

Have a great day, no matter where in the world you are.

Love,
JC(3.14)
