2001年來到台灣在榮民總醫院跟天母消防隊實習，基本上那是場「火熱」的洗禮。我爸爸媽媽阿嬤都跟我們講台語，所以我來的時候只會3句非常非常基本的中文。 我所認知的台灣都是從小聽爸媽講的故事，我自以為對台灣很了解，但一到這裡被文化差異徹底衝擊洗禮之後，才知道完全不是想像中那回事。
2001: When I worked as an EMT at Tianmu Fire Station and intern at Veterans General Hospital in Taipei. It was my baptism by fire (sometimes, literally). I arrived in Taiwan knowing only three basic words in Mandarin, I thought I knew Taiwanese culture based off of the stories my parents would tell me, but I was in for a culture shock.
非常感謝這些超讚的朋友，陪伴我成長、讓我避免菜鳥會犯的低級錯誤、教我髒話，哈哈！ 我很懷念那段台灣初體驗的日子。
Thankfully, I had these wonderful people to show me the ropes (heh heh) and rescue me from making many rookie mistakes. (And also, for teaching me tons of bad words in Taiwanese.) I’ll never forget this experience!
如果你們還有其他的跟我合照的照片，一定要記得po給我，tag我， 然後跟大家分享這張照片背後的故事！我真的好喜歡大家最近跟我分享的照片！If you have more pictures you took with me, please post them, tag me and share the story behind the picture! I love all of the photos y’all have sent so far!!!

想自己試翻成中文給看不種英文的朋友看
可是有一句看不懂，不知道要怎麼翻:
=========================================================
Both literally and figuratively they lost the “keys” ,
they lost all higher knowledge
我的試譯
實在且象徵的說，他們失去了”鑰匙”，
他們失去了所有更高的知識
==========================================================
這樣翻好像怪怪的
原本的上下文如下
Hidden world
In the controversial dead sea scrolls,
revealing the lost Books of Enoch removed
from the Bible by early religious leaders
在富爭議性的死海卷軸中，
揭露了被早期宗教領袖從聖經中刪除的Enoch之書
Enoch describes a wondrous civilization in
the past, who misused the keys of higher
knowledge and were unable to save themselves
from the last cataclysm
Enoch之書描述過去一個令人驚嘆的文明，誤用了
更高知識的鑰匙而無法在最後一次災難中毀滅了
Both literally and figuratively they lost
the “keys” , they lost all higher knowledge
實在且象徵的說，他們失去了”鑰匙”，他們失去
了所有更高的知識
