My name is Debbi Huang, I work in the TOEIC Taiwan office. I enjoy traveling very much to experience different cultures, food, as well as languages. Every time when I travel abroad, I like to mail a postcard to myself as the most precious souvenir, so that I can remember more of every unique trip.

In Taiwan, we usually have dumplings at the Chinese New Year, because the shape of a dumpling is like the shape of Chinese gold in ancient times. During the Chinese New Year, we put one coin into the dumplings and people who eat the dumpling with the coin will get one year good luck.
We call it Pearl Bubble Milk Tea because when the tapioca is cooked, it’s looks like shining pearls. And the shake makes the milk tea form with bubbles.
