1️⃣ Where you published. Outside of research-heavy roles, almost nobody cares.
2️⃣ How niche your dissertation was. The skills gained matter more than the exact topic.
3️⃣ Working nonstop. What matters is visibility (of you and your work) and prioritization, not the number of hours you put in.
4️⃣ Having every answer. Knowing how to find the answer is what matters.
5️⃣ Being the smartest person in the room. Actually, what matters most is collaboration and being a team player.

But we are learning and growing and I’ve already changed a lot in the past year and a half. 💗

✨the food is soooo delicious and also affordable, there’s so many options to choose from and you can be 99% sure that whatever you pick will be excellent. Many times we fed 4 people for $20. My parents were in shock how affordable eating out was bc salaries are similar in Estonia and it’s a lot more expensive to eat out in Estonia (not everything is cheap though, real estate is insanely priced even by US standards)
✨ the metro is so efficient, CLEAN, safe (there’s safety walls that only open when the train door opens) and well organized, nobody pushes, people wait politely in line
✨it’s so beautiful naturally with lush tropical forests, blue water, hundreds of tall mountains, hot springs etc
✨there’s so many free public bathrooms and they’re all clean 😭 I haven’t seen such well maintained public bathrooms anywhere else in the world and I’ve been to 30+ counties. I even used a fancy Japanese bidet toilet with heated seat in a fast food restaurant?!
✨there’s lots of cute 可愛 things everywhere — in stores, in cafes etc. People make sure to accessorize all their bags with cute charms, I love to see it
✨ fast trains!! A journey that would have taken us 4.5h by car, took us 1h40 by train. And car traffic also feels pretty safe with good roads, I would even consider renting a car and driving the next time.
✨ it’s very safe! I never worry about walking around at night. And I never have to even worry about closing my bag properly, people could lose their wallet/phone in a public space and locals would make sure it will make it back to you.
✨ the convenience stores!! Most open 24h a day and actually offer amazing food and snacks
✨ rich cultural history that is a mix of indigenous, Japanese and Chinese cultural influence
✨it’s very progressive when it comes to social issues and freedoms, for example, it was the first county in Asia to legalize same sex marriage (Nepal and Thailand have joined now) and nearly half of legislators are women
My parents had a great time exploring Zijay’s home country. All in all, a successful trip!!
❓Do you have any similar goals/resolutions?
Back in Zijay’s home country after many years. We both lived in our home countries (Estonia and Taiwan) until the end of our undergrads and then moved abroad for school. Estonia has been easier to get to from Boston (cheaper, closer) but now that we can afford it, I want to make coming to Taiwan regularly a priority as well. I absolutely love it here!!

I’m curious, how long have you been following me?
I think I blacked out during the presentation because I barely remember what happened. Adrenaline took over 😀 I can’t believe I’m officially done — 5 years of PhD, 12 years of university education altogether. It’s the end of an era.
Thank you everyone who joined in person and virtually. 💖
