Love Letter to my Home: Taipei

New York, 21.08.22

This playlist is my love letter to Taipei–the city I grew up in. When I received the prompt from NTS, I decided I would make a playlist in remembrance of what I lost when me and my family moved to the West. For me, these are the songs that remind me of the humid summer rain, the smell of the old draping banyan trees and the chanting of old men selling rice dumplings from their street carts. I’m dedicating this to my friends and families across the world, but it’s also my hope that whoever listens to this will be able to enjoy a piece of my childhood with these nostalgic and bittersweet Taiwanese melodies.
