Sarah's story: In the summer of 2018, I traveled to Taiwan to teach at a summer camp in Tainan. Little did I know, this journey would change my life forever. It was there that I met Jeff. We were celebrating a mutual friend's birthday in a karaoke room. I was mesmerized by his singing, and that night marked the beginning of our connection. Our summer fling quickly evolved into something deeper. I made the bold decision to move to Taiwan, embracing a new chapter of my life with Jeff. For the past five and a half years, we've been living in Taiwan together, creating a life for ourselves and experiencing all the ups and downs that life throws our way.

In the summer of 2018, I was in a bit of a haze. I was still working through my master’s degree, trying to figure out who I was and where I was going. Honestly, I felt stuck, unsure about what was next. Then I met Sarah at a karaoke night for a mutual friend’s birthday in Tainan. Something about her perspective made me look at things differently. She opened my eyes to new possibilities and helped me see life in a way I hadn’t before. That meeting gave me a new sense of direction. Six years later, we’re here in Taiwan, and I’m glad I took that step forward with her.
