#1. self introduction

Hello everyone, I’m Tiffany. I’m 19 years old and I come from Taipei. I’m now studying at Taipei University of Business and major in English. I’m always working hard for all my courses and now I’m studying Japanese as my second language. I’m outgoing and lively when I l stay with people. I have had a lot of travel experiences with my families since I was young. These experiences let me know more about different cultures and also broaden my horizon. I believe these characteristics will help me a lot in my future career. In my leisure time, I like to travel and read books. I think reading may be my second teacher because I can learn many new things from reading.
