- Hey Guys ! Today I interviewd very nice and kind people on the street,and they all have different background and thought.
I was born and raised in Taiwan. I like to travel to different country. But I have never to live abroad for a long time before.So I'm really curious that foreigner think about their living in Taiwan.
If you want to visit Taiwan, then I think this video will help you.
See you next time !

@Em in Japan Half Taiwanese, Half Austrian
That Austrian lady is not only very fluent in English, spoken without a tinge of German accent but in Mandarin as well. Very impressive for being effectively trilingual.
She looks mixed because she does look Asian
@@tainanking She did say shes half taiwanese and half german
She is Mia Sabathy, hmm.. sounds lucky to bump into her on the streets.
@@house102 totally unplanned lol
@@rayart88 : I think it's important to be worldly.. especially if you do business globally. Just basic respect? She did say that she is "Austrian" .. and not German. German can be both described as a language, as well as a location, the country. Just like, I can be Cantonese.. but I would call myself British Cantonese. (Nationality-Race). A lot of people may be able to speak another language, but they could be from a different region. Just like in Singapore... some people can speak Cantonese (because their parents were from Canton)... or that they can speak Fuijianese (cos their ancestry is from Fuijian).
我住在國外三十年了 我真心覺得台灣人對世界上很多事沒有敏感度或了解 其原因我覺得是因為台灣新聞台24 小時而且那麼多台 但不怎麼報導國際新聞 除了重大新聞 我也是因為在兩個國家住了才了解 台灣人民素質很好 如果再加上日常生活拓展世界觀 我們國家及人民素質應該會更高更強 . 我所謂世界觀是世界上的基本常識 普遍大眾都知道的那種 今時今日 我還偶爾會覺得有些事小時後沒學好 有些事是有階段性的 該學的時候沒學好 就錯過了 等到要用時才知
台灣加油💪
我也有同感！！！
真的沒有世界觀 整天報導一堆政治相關新聞。
@@user-gd8nv4ir5t 而且隔壁貓走丟了 老王吃麵嗆到 也當新聞報 就是不報國際新聞🤣🤣🤣🤣
整天播一堆仇恨值拉高到新聞降低台灣人素質
白彌兒真的很漂亮我追蹤很久了，但她說人家會盯著她看，是因為她太漂亮吧@____@
她講得很棒，而且台灣最大缺點確實是如此，喜歡活在同溫層
That Austrian woman is Mia Sabathy. She took part in Austria's Next Topmodel and Asia's Next Topmodel. She is so nice and humble and of course beautifil. So sad that she left Austria.
The mother is almost always the asian in mixed marriages. Many asian males will be single for life. So sad.
這位混血美女太美了，任誰都會想回頭看一眼吧！
Having lived in South Korea, Japan and China, I preferred living in Taipei for the comparatively laid back attitudes and friendly people. Each of those countries had things I really enjoyed, like their amazing cuisines respectively, but the overall quality of life I found that suited me best was in Taiwan.
people in tropical countries are more laid back.
@Phil and I was always/usually struck by how nice, especially the small town folks were in China. Very nice people! For foreigners, the ex-pat community in Taiwan is really vibrant and positive. Wish I could do all those countries/experiences all over again. I taught ESL and loved it!
Could I ask you, how did you come to the position where you lived in all those countries? I'm debating moving to Japan or Taipei..
I had just finished college, was thinking about becoming a teacher and knew I wanted to/had to travel somewhere, anywhere! I first took a volunteer/assistant English as a Second Language teaching position at a school down the street from my house in the USA. I knew immediately teaching was something I could do. I then looked in the newspaper (believe it or not, that's how we learned about job openings back then), saw "Teach in Korea" and applied. I came home from that job with some good savings and a desire to return to Japan. It just worked out that way. I would gladly revisit living in Japan or Taiwan. They were completely different for me, but just for a more laid back work/life balance, I would choose Taiwan without hesitation. Today, I would rather take a vacation in Japan, but live in Taiwan. Remember, I'm a lot older and value different things at this point in life. @@theo7049
@@theo7049Taiwan has a nice residence program called Golden Card. You can get up to 3 years residence with a possibility to get PR after 3 years. It comes with an open work permit but you can also work remotely for your overseas company. The financial requirements for this program are actually quite reasonable compared to other residence programs in asia.
I live in Taipei for almost 14 years and I just can't see myself leaving. It's the most beautiful country I know of and this is mainly because of the amazing Taiwanese people!
I got here 10 years ago, and I still find it near impossible to leave, despite several grievances.
@@neothaka would you mind elaborating on those grievances? I'm curious...
True, the people (well most) are why this place is such a great place. I visited it once and never left.
模特兒絕對不是花瓶 能在各行各業順利發展的都有很深的智慧跟實質的能力 佩服 喜歡她的分享

哇 第一個女生超優質 又美又聰明又謙虛 應該多上節目讓大家認識
她好像有上過Asia next top model??
Yes 她是Mia
奧地利女生觀察好入微！一點出來才發現很多時候連自己要打入別的朋友圈都會有種有點辛苦的感覺！可以想像身為外國人會有多辛苦！
全世界不都這樣嗎？有自己的圈子。當然感謝她的意見，台灣人的英文是需要加強、也多到非亞洲國家看看，增加國際觀。English is the key for Taiwanese people to be connected with foreigners and exchange experiences or ideas. It’s not necessarily Taiwanese people are not open to foreigners. It’s mainly the lack of English ability to express themselves. Thanks for her opinion. She’s half Taiwanese. No wonder she really knows the cultures and places in Taiwan. Thanks to her.
從名模生死鬥時期就超喜歡白彌兒 她真的很有內涵也很美！！❤
那個女生是白彌兒，之前有代表台灣參加亞洲名模生死鬥，照片很漂亮，最後名次也很好。
她是混血吗 ？ 还是越南人 ？
台灣跟奧地利混血
感谢
她真的美到讓人窒息 哇噻！！
她有以新住民身份上过电视节目吗？
That East Coast of Taiwan is incredible. Silent beauty. The only "negative" is it rains ALL the time. Extremely humid. But food, safety, friendly people, cost of living (except for an apartment), etc cannot be beat. I also read Taiwan has the best health care system in Asia.
You should go to other parts of Taiwan and ask expats how they feel living there. You should also ask people from Thailand, Vietnam, Philippines, Cambodia, Indonesia how they would rate living in Taiwan. You'll get a very different answer from people
true
Ya like the POOR ones too not just the rich ones 😂 most pf Expats r POOR in Taiwan
My daughter is half Taiwanese and we live in Vienna. I take her to Taiwan every year, so she feels comfortable in Taiwan too.I understand how this young lady feels, cause I lived in Taipei as young foreigner too. Is ungrateful to say, but being foreigner, have to say Austrians are etnocentric as well and can be very unsocial people at first. They are both small country with high living standards, Austria have better family conditions, and Taiwan is cooler. Hope it this make sense.
Hi, have you watched the second interview of Mia?
The mother is almost always the asian in mixed marriages. Many asian males will be single for life. So sad.
Thanks for sharing. Austria has one of the highest living standards in the world.
The Austrian Lady explained it really well and shared what she's actually experienced 😊
A thing I have observed is that she's carrying herself really well 👍
Vienna girl is so cute...I'm in love She speaks good English with little to none German accent. Bravo!!
Just came back from solo trip in Taipei and saw this. I'm impressed how Taiwan society has evolved so well over the decades. People are amazingly polite thoughtful and considerate. Some comments here say because it's a homogeneous society so Taiwanese lack a wider world view. But it is also because it's homogeneous and people are so well taken care of and feeling so safe that they have evolved so well as a nation.
❤
I lived in Taiwan in 2011 and 2012. It's a great place to live, learn, and work. I definitely enjoyed being around friendly welcoming people, eating many kinds of delicious cuisine, and being so close to serene nature. The cost of living combined with the ability to make a decent living teaching English or doing other kinds of work allow for a very comfortable lifestyle.
Time to come back!
I stayed in Taiwan for 8 months during pandemic, wonderful country and people, I would rate it 8 or 9 out of 10, actually I would love to go back and live in Taiwan.
You are highly welcome to come back to Taiwan in anytime.
I think Taiwan is underrated for expats. Like many of the foreigners in this video I first lived in other parts of Asia, Japan and Hong Kong for over a decade. Then moved to Taiwan. Like all countries, there are pros and cons, but I think Taiwan strikes a nice balance compared to Japan and Hong Kong in my opinion.
….you mean immigrants, NOT “expats”. I never really did understand how an expat who has been living in TW for over two decades still referred themselves as an “expat”. Make NO mistake, that individual should be considered as an immigrant…period. Nuff said.
whats an expats? if you move to another country you are an immigrant, stop with the stupid American/European superiority complex
@@trentonbarnard4564 you must be pretty ignorant if you don't know the difference. I don't plan on staying hence an "expat".
Is Taiwan better than HK?? Like I love HK but I've never been to Taiwan before
You will love Taiwan 🇹🇼
That guy at the end is just the man. So positive and grateful and even if there's something not quite right, he just gets on with it and makes do. I wish him and his family well.
希望有一個版本是訪問東南亞移工的
我們不能每次都挑老外來訪問
台灣人對日韓歐美人比較好是客觀事實
東南亞人對台灣的印象也很重要
但是好像很少人訪問他們？
東南亞朋友已再準備中💪
其實你都知道原因了 還需要問嗎?
她分享得算很深入的觀察，不是泛泛之談。
I was born in the US, and my parents are Taiwanese. I decided to move to Taiwan in 2018. i'm glad that they stopped the outdoor mask mandate a few months ago - that was a bit annoying. I'd honestly rate the experience of living in Taiwan a 7/10. not gonna lie, majority of the buildings in Taipei are over 50 years old and buying a house is not affordable. some renters also refuse to rent to foreigners. Nevertheless, Taiwan has its charm, there's plenty of good food, cheap Boba, and kind people. I'll continue to live in Taiwan until the next step of my life.
I feel as long as you don't buy at central areas, go places like Dan Shui, TaoYuan, houses are still affordable.
How’s your mandarin?
@@tainanking 我覺得還可以
I’m also in a similar situation as you, parents are Taiwanese and I am looking to move to Taiwan soon. Do you mind if I ask how you made the move? Did you have a job lined up already or did you start searching after you arrived?
@@dailiguy when i first came, i did have a job lined up along with sponsorship for work visa. it wasn't ideal, but I grew a better understanding for the culture here in Taiwan. I also started taking Mandarin classes in the morning to improve my writing and reading. I recommend the Taiwan job website, it's called 104, just search 104 taiwan jobs and it should show up.
漂亮又有氣質的女孩，聰明 又會説流利的德 英 中...多國語言，好棒！
I’ve been here for 5 years. I love Taiwan.
我愛台灣！
What do you do there? I wanna live there too ❤
有同感是因為即使我在台灣土生土長，但因為外型很不「台灣」就一直被路人當異類看待，更何況是非亞洲人種，那個感受一定更誇張，完全可以理解。
難怪很眼熟😊，原來是名模，好漂亮好漂亮好漂亮 ，氣質美勝於外形美😍😍😍
（btw受夠了一堆女生賣珍珠奶茶的）
When I was in the US Air Force back in early 1970's. I was temporarily stationed in Taiwan. From there I flew in and out of Viet Nam during the war being assigned to a C-130 aircraft. I thought the Country was very nice, but at the time did not get to travel around it that much. People there ere very friendly and spoke English. I will probably never get to go to that Country again.
Take care.
Thank you for sharing this video! I visited Taiwan for the first time ever in November/December for my birthday in 2022 (I actually made a video about my trip), and I absolutely loved it so much, that I booked another holiday to Taiwan and was there again last week. I already made my decision that I want to move and live in Taiwan by the end of this year, however one of my biggest fears is the language barrier. While everyone was extremely friendly during both my times there, I found that most people did not speak English, and seemed to avoid me/weren't too keen on communicating unless specifically approached by myself. I know I can go and undertake Mandarin language courses to improve on that front, but I am quite worried about the first 6 or so months where I do not know any Mandarin.
Subbed to your channel also, and very keen to follow more of your videos!
Thanks dude ! Welcome to Taiwan 💪
Love this program! And looking forward for my first trip there soon.
This is so insightful! Thank you for sharing!
She is so charming from the way she speaks to her appearance ❤
Modeling in Taiwan seems so fun !! Especially I love the aesthetic compared to western magazines and designs
I was so surprised that the first girl was able to pronounce taiwan city names in such an accurate accent since she only moved to taiwan couple years ago. But then in the end, it turned out she’s half Taiwanese! Lol. Although kudos to her language skills as there are plenty of American Taiwanese kids who can barely speak mandarin. Europeans in general are well traveled because from some cities, you can literally drive an hour and be in another country. Taiwan is an island so it takes more effort to travel. With that said, most Taiwanese tend to just go to Japan and Thailand when they travel. I mean Laos, Vietnam, and Cambodia is actually closer geographically.
台灣素食選項確實滿多的
許多台灣人對外國人的熱情、友善、關懷
基本上大於對本國人
而上述的外國人
不包含東南亞地區的人
我會陸續推出東南亞的朋友系列, 採訪他們的真實經歷, 讓更多人可以了解他們生活的感受
日本人からしたら、高雄にいたらそんなもの感じられないのだがw
The Austrian lady is a gem. Thank you so much for this video, very enlightening about Taiwan, which I didn't know much about.
Taiwan is a nice country with great people! With love from Ukraine 😍
I've got a friend in Taiwan....cool people:)))
Hearing foreigners' opinions makes me thankful for the place where I was born and raised, and I should cherish it more
man, the answers of the first interview are spot on! yet there is a bit difference when both your parents are taiwanese but you grow up in a very different culture (Argentina in my case), I've lived in Taiwan for 12 years now, and I had to learn mandarin from scratch... if i told you the stories that happened to me now it would be funny, but back then it was a very difficult situation since NO ONE would think I'm not taiwanese... and when I said "I don't speak mandarin" in perfect mandarin accent (I'm a good student haha) they would get angry because they think I'm joking and answer back "didn't you go to school? I don't speak mandarin......" sarcastically hahahaha anywho, thanks for the video! It brought back memories of my double cultural shock haha! xD
Thanks for sharing your story 😎
The beautiful model speaks Chinese very well, the pronounciation was perfect.
It's so true about the whole isolation thing! Even for native Taiwanese it's tough to get into new friend groups or make new friends. It's possible, but will take a long time. Especially if people in the group all grew up together.
So Taiwanese aren't friendly. At all. Right?
Your killing it woth your Chanel man thays awesome! 🙌🙏❤GOOD FOR YOU BROTHER
That beautiful lady is so gorgeous, she even gave out amazing perspective that I, as a Taiwanese, cannot come up with.
Thanks for sharing. Hard to image the first lady can't build friendships with people with her good command of Mandarin!
想再看到Mia專訪！！她是很專業的模特～～
好 我再問問她😎
一個小建議。這應該也有中文字幕，Mia口中的人可能會更少一點的。(更學習到英文、甚至不受語言限制更有一些國際觀或認識外面的世界怎麼想）也讓更多台灣人能與她這部影片中的想法有更多她想要的「連結connection 」。大家一起加油。小可惜了。
感謝建議 ~ 這是早期影片, 全英文的, 一開始甚至連字幕都沒有.
其實一開始我拍片,不是為了誰,就是自我學習的過程
Wow I was amazed at the first girl's Mandarin. Too bad we didn't hear the last man speak Chinese since he said he can speak it.
Keep up the good work. Your English is good too @JayChen. Great confidence!
Thank you 😎
Loved the video I will for sure visit Taiwan now
3:35 當一個在國外長大的台灣人 I feel for her on that
Great interview with a bunch beautiful and nice people!!
Thank you😀
Model at beginning is STUNNING!!❤ and same heritage as me!
Great video! Thanks!
Great to hear so many positive stories about my adopted home Taiwan. I retired in Taipei 14 years ago after living & working in HK for 24 years, Tokyo for 5 years, and before that NYC my birth city. I also bought a home in Tainan where I hope to move to one day. Most of my friends use to say " You will never last in Taiwan you are an NYC (boy) man." Well, guess I proved them wrong!
I like Tainan too 😀
Love Tainan! Spent a couple months there last year ☺️
why tainan?
@@fdsaffff I studied at 國立成功大學, and I also just really enjoy the feel of the city. It's still big by my standards, but it's smaller than Taipei which I like. I also like being closer to places like 高雄 and 台東，though when you're in Taiwan, your never that far from anything! 🙂
why did they say that? i'm a nyc boy (o boy!) and thinking of moving there...
I'm coming to Taiwan next month, and I feel very excited after seeing this video!
Welcome to Taiwan 😎
It's funny how people see each other. Physically i mean. As a foreigner i could immediately tell that the first girl was east Asian but the interviewer thought she was a foreigner(non asian). Made me realise that people see more details in facial features of the people of their same race.
Actually, she looks 100% Austrian. If only you went and looked her Instagram. Right now appearance looks like if she is trying so hard to look like a Taiwanese girl but can't.
she is so humble! i think her mandarin is excellent! thanks for introducing her! 😀
exactly，她的中文非常標準，發音清楚且好聽。
Mia is highly articulate and that's amazing indeed.
Europe is different from Taiwan in that just one or two hours away, most people would be in another country and in another language.
Taiwan isn't like that for travel overseas is still a bit of luxury for most and infrequently. Being on an island places different constraints in term of travelling.
Mia's other video shows her sad experience not being fully part of any culture. It's the fate of those with a bit ethnic mix or difference from the main stream community.
I feel somehow sympathetic that she needs psychological help with her sense of identity.
I hope she does accept her difference one way or another. Being double as it were is a good approach.
Feeling part of a group isn't easy. Most have deep friendship formed while at school age. Adult age friendship is different.
I know for a fact that most adult migrants as it were don't have much luck forming deep friendship with the locals. Even you marry a local and have kids, often there isn't deep local friendship either. I've been told by several who share this type of experience.
One last suggestion is that being herself is as good as feeling belonged. It's part of the fate being dealt with.
Please pass this comment to Mia if possible.
Thank you for your message. Mia will see it
First video I watched on your channel! I love the way you interview people and your personality! Keep it up 👍
Thank you ☀
奧地利美女分享講得太棒了，歐洲老牌國家的歷史藝文悠久，教育培養出來的國民文化水準很高。台灣之前受到黨國思想和大中國意識灌輸，對自我認同不夠，整個社會還需要時間建立自我意識和民族自信。
越是對自己歷史文化還沒有建立自信的民族越會排外，對自己有自信的人民才更能包容融合外國人，像美國的建國歷史雖然比歐洲國家短很多，但人民對自己國家很有自信所以成為民族大熔爐。大家加油。
日本歷史悠久，自我認同超高，但，日本人很容易接受外國人嗎??並沒有。
美國很自信，很包容嗎，並沒有。
你說的排外跟什麼黨國思想大中國意識關係其實不大。
主要如那位奧地利混血女生說的，眼界的問題，對世界所知有限。這沒辦法，島國的命運。(日本也是島國、大陸因為地理因素與政權因素，比島國還島國)
但，我覺得台灣，經過許多不同政權統治(或控制)，實際上對外國人已經相對包容了。當然對白人一直都極友善，但即使對東南亞人，經過多年的相處與習慣，也慢慢比較友善了。
都2023年了還有人在相信美國是大熔爐啊？台灣人經過長時間的外來政權統治，民族包容性已經算超高了。真要說的話我覺得你是自己對台灣沒自信或者沒在國外待過無從比較，才會把自己的潛意識投射在其他人身上。
還有什麼事都要扯黨國教育真的蠻好笑的。
美国种族歧视怎么圆？肤色敌视，肤色阶层，居住地还分白色黑色，民族大熔炉？笑:-D
@@samzi6016 就是，美國甚至全球都種族歧視，簡單透過外表去推理對方的強弱優劣這幾乎是寫在基因裡面的了，生存必須啊

Yes language is very important !
❤thx for interview in tw !
what I love about taiwan: the people who produce the food and the crafts and the smiles, and the wholesome welcoming attitude. worst thing is honestly the gas powered motorcycles, air and noise pollution and also unsafe just weavinh in and out of night markets and side walks. gotta get rid of those and go electric.
Thank you so much for your content ! I'm coming to Taiwan in february and your videos are really great for me.
Cheers from France man 🙏
Thanks for the message man! I'm glad that this video can help you 😎
Taiwan c'est tres bien. Tu y vas tu y reste.
I lived there for 8 months in 2019! Watching the video made me wanna go again :D Keep the work up!!! Good content!!
Welcome back to Taiwan 🇹🇼 anytime
台湾本当に大好き
The lady at the 3 minute mark speaks a lot of truth regarding common obstacles for foreigners here. Particularly, the difficult to make local friends due to the reason she mentioned.
So it's hard to flirt with local ladies?
Was in Taiwan and Taipei a couple of years ago. Lovely place, wonderful people. I’ll be happy to return soon!
Welcome back to Taiwan anytime 😎
Taiwan is how mainland China would be if the CCP didnt win the civil war.
It’s a relatively safe country, especially in regards to violent crime towards foreigners. I’ve been living here for over 12 years and have never really felt threatened. My wife sometimes goes downstairs at around 12am and she’s fine. She feels safe. Earthquakes and typhoons pose a minimal risk. Driving would be the factor that stands out most, especially if you’re on a scooter.
I have the same feeling like the first girl as I'm living in Germany. Many ppl are in their own circle, it's hard to break in, therefore my friends are mostly "foreigners" who live in Germany. Though ppl travel "abroad" kinda often, it is restricted to European countries, ppl are mostly very unfamiliar with Asia in general or they only have a general concept for these regions. But that's fair, cuz distance, languages...etc.. regardless I really hope that ppl can slowly be motivated to understand and differentiate our differences 😊
Thank you for sharing your experience 😀
Beautiful I love Japan Taiwan and South Korea
I Love Taiwan. food, the people, the Security, the Lifestyle.
Love your style of video. Would love to interview you if you make it to Tainan or the next time we're in Taipei.
👍👍👍
I am here because of Mia! She is very unique and beautiful!
2:45 her pronounciation of locations are amazing.
i am in the process of moving to Taiwan Taichung to take care of my wife's parents. I speak no mandarin but have already found a few schools near by. I highly recommend anyone to go visit Taiwan it is a beautiful country with some of the best people you will meet. Great Video. :)
很不错的提问，很棒，加油
This is amazing I love your content! Can you get more foreigners conversing in mandarin with you, it’s a very impressive some of them are pretty fluent
Glad you like it : ) You can check this one too -> czcams.com/video/u7R-JDNta_A/video.html

Very good video ! I would like to visit Taïwan 🇹🇼 !
Thank you for your video ! I watch your video from Canada 😁👍
Glad you like it 😎
她分析地很有道理
Frankly speaking, no doubt Taiwan is a awesome place !!!
I've been here for almost 4 months already and I am making preparations to get married , I obviously live in Taipei City and its great ,always something new to see and new foods to taste ,I love the Japanese influence and the different cars I can spot , architecture and I like people's sense of fashion ,most taiwanese people are dressed casual but a nice combo ,amazing views of mountain ,rivers and sea .
Pros don't need to be enumerated since there are so many so I'll offer some cons that are : low wages ,don't expect huge salaries when it comes to some jobs ,although the economy is great they simply don't offer competitive salaries you see in other countries , I personally believe workers are mistreated ,for example my fiance wanted to take a day off so we can get married legally and she is by law and on contract entitled to her holidays and they threatened that she may lose her job ( obviously very formally ) , not many job options for foreigners , taiwanese people are obsessed with air conditioning so you may be freezing in many places ( like me on the plane and my fiance at work ) , the smell coming from sewers can be unbearable sometimes ,in some districts they throw away food in the sewer and it just goes everywhere ,once you walk over a manhole you just don't try it a second time . Obviously there are many things to say but my opinion is that Taiwan is a great place to live if you don't mind the heat and the 7 month typhoon season
Thank you so much for offering some cons about Taiwan. We need different opinion to get better 💪
I totally recognize what the first lady is saying ! Taiwan is really a great country to visit, nobody thought about it for tourism but really worth it…
what a beautiful place
this model lady is like an angle, she is so nice and pretty.
So adorable！
哇，她的中文、英语都好好听！
:-) I'm also Austrian (also lived in Vienna for some years) ... My Wife is Taiwanese ... my daughter mixed just like the girl you interviewed and we live in the south of Taiwan.
Negative side of Taiwan:
- parking space (our area especially, but I take it with humor... while others are changing their face)
- air pollution
Other than that Tainan is like a diamond I feel, too much good food here for one person...
The mother is almost always the asian in mixed marriages. Many asian males will be single for life. So sad.
@@guysovereign To be honest evaluate the life in the west eg various German cities there are way more males than females.
I'm sure the situation is very similar. Now since I live in Taiwan I feel like the ratio between female and males are fairly equal.
I would not say that in Germany, and certainly it depends which career path you're on.
@@mrechbreger You and your wife take advantage of the racial privilege that works in your favor.
@@mrechbregerHallo, ich würde gerne Sie fragen, ob Ihre Tochter vielleicht etwas anders in Tainan wegen Ihres Aussehens behandelt würde. mfg,
@@au284hruf83h My daughter is fully integrated here and attends a public school she's just like any other normal kid (luckily). We speak Chinese/English and German with her, we switch the language regularly.
As a Canadian I find it amusing to see a Canada Goose store behind you there in Taipei. .. I mean they are known for their goose down winter coats for extreme cold temperatues. . . which you never get anywhere in Taiwan.
The Austrian lady who spoke with an American accent led me to believe she
probably went to an American International school but she does have slightly
German accent if you listen closely. But she is definitely almost a native speaker
of both English and Chinese. I don't know about German because she did not
speak it in the video.
German is her first language
