She cited the example of Samantha Brown, who she brought to the Yuanshan Tunnel, claimed to be the longest “Cement Slide” in the world. Samantha also traveled down to Changhua and joined farmers to collect oysters. She was invited to an oyster farmer’s home where she joined some women farmers and cut open the shells. Samantha learned and used mnemonic phrases in the Taiwanese dialect and had a lot of fun. “I feel like I am back to 6 years old, so relaxing, and the hospitality here makes me want to stay,” she said.
