    More about Flora

    I was born and raised in Taiwan. My major in college was Korean Language and literature, therefore, I can also speak in Korean conversationally. Being in different countries and cultures, I like to experience things that differ from my knowledge and also teach me to view things in a new perspective. I also love spending time with animals in my free time and love to make fluffy friends!
