[Asian Americans] Ep61 Growing Up in Intersections ft. Dare to Travel (浪遊天涯) Duncan

It's been a long time since I collaborated with another podcaster in English and here it is! The host of Dare to Travel, Duncan who was born in Hong Kong and grew up in Macau as a Cantonese and English speaker who moved to California, lived in New York and now in Taipei, Taiwan. He talks about his journey of growing up and the transitions from the U.S. to Taiwan. How does he cope with all the changes and being at the intersections of cultures, languages, and identities? He met his true love when traveling and how did it happen? | Find Duncan IG @followduncan and Dare to Travel @daretotravelpodcast or https://www.daretotravelpodcast.com/ | Duncan is also teaching English online, contact him!
