Providence University

The Campus is very beautiful here. There is a lot of plants and vegetation around campus, with modern buildings and beautiful landscaping. There was a lot of student life on campus and it is very fun to be on campus. The one down fall is one of the guys dorms is off campus, as of course this is where I am living.

 

This is a shot looking at a large pavilion on Campus

 

Most of the buildings have large signs in both Chinese and English.

 

They have fountains and statues and other really cool flower gardens all over campus.

 

Really cool murals on the buildings on Campus.

 

 

There were really cool campus events going on all over campus. The campus seems to be alive and full of life. I love going to these festivals, they are really fun, even if I do not know what they are saying. When people see us walking they will switch to speak in English to get our attention, it is really cool and everyone is so very friendly. 

A bunch of booths set up on a campus street for some festival. It was really fun to walk through.

A group of students holding up signs in Chinese, I honestly have no clue what this was all about, but it was a lot of fun just to stand and listen to them speak Chinese and run around and do their activity they were doing in a pavilion on campus!

This is a really cool amp-theater on campus, where if you stand in the middle on the platform it will echo.

 

This was one of the many beautiful little flower gardens to just sit and enjoy the BEAUTIFUL weather of Taiwan! All of you should be jealous of our summer weather I am experiencing in March!

 

This was one of the groups performing at a culture festival held on campus.  

 

These dances they were performing were all very cool and I loved watching them, they were so cool and I loved being able to just watch all the different things happening around campus in a different culture!

 

I can tell that they do use humor in their dances, because they are college students!

So far I am loving my experience here in Taiwan at Providence University. The University is very welcoming and helpful in every way. Our coordinators are the best in every way as well, I consider them my friends and they teach me something new everyday about their culture and in the process they learn about the American Culture.
