💕「愛台灣，我的選擇」系列第六發：美國在台協會高雄分處處長歐雨修的台灣青春歲月💕
「1994當年我即將畢業於德州大學，那時候德州大學每年都會提供獎學金給學生到師大學習中文，而我很幸運的申請到了！其實我曾考慮去日本念書，但最後決定來台灣繼續學習文言文。現在回想起來很好玩，因為當時我只離開過美國一次，而且我也不知道台灣會是什麼樣子，所以來台灣後我整個很驚喜。1994年的台灣和現在有些不同，但也有些事物保持原樣，比方說：台灣人還是超級親切、食物依然非常美味，雖然那時台北還沒有捷運，但台北的公共交通已經很便利了，台灣真的很讚！1998年我以美國在台協會實習生的身分回到台灣，2006年到2010年間，我回到台灣學台語，接著在美國在台協會經濟組工作；2017年我以美國在台協會高雄分處處長的身分再度回到台灣，我跟你說台灣真的是日新月異，進步神速！我常常開玩笑說，美國中西部人和台灣人是世界上最友善的人，不過台灣南部人好像又更友善更親切，而且我覺得南部的食物又更好吃（恩，我知道有人會不同意啦）。」
💕Why I Chose Taiwan #6 💕
"I was graduating from college in 1994 and every year my school, the University of Texas, had a fellowship to study Chinese at 師大 (National Taiwan Normal University, NTNU). That year I applied for it and I got it. I also had the option of going to Japan, but I decided that I wanted to come to Taiwan to keep studying classical Chinese at 師大. It’s funny, thinking back, at that time I had only been outside of the U.S. once before, and I had no preconceived idea of what Taiwan would be like. So obviously, I was very pleasantly surprised. This was 1994, so Taiwan was a little bit different than it is now, but some things are the same: The people were super nice, the food was excellent, and public transportation in Taipei was convenient, although they didn’t have the MRT quite yet. It was a great place to be. Then I came back as an intern at AIT in 1998, and then I was here from 2006-10, studying Taiwanese and then working at AIT in the economic section. I’ve been back again since 2017 as the Principal Officer of our AIT branch in Kaohsiung, and I can tell you Taiwan just keeps getting better and better. I always joke that the nicest people in the world are mid-Westerners and Taiwanese people, and I believe that here in the south, they somehow manage to be even nicer, even friendlier. I think the food is better in the south as well. (Controversial opinion, I know.)"--- AIT Kaohsiung Branch Chief Matthew O’Connor
