Sophie Kirpan's photo from CRC in Taiwan

My classmate Elsa was instructed to trace her hand along the thin waterfall inside the world Religions museum in Taipei, Taiwan on the Comparative Religion and Culture program. This exercise was meant to help participants practice walking into the museum in complete silence and only listen to the soft fall of the water and the gentle feel of the smooth ripples.

A big part of the Taiwanese culture is the food one may purchase from small stands on the street. These are fried dumplings filled with pork and accompanied with thick soy sauce. They were served on a plate covered in a plastic bag for easy clean up. Using disposable wooden chopsticks to eat this favorite food makes the experience much more fun. This dumpling delicacy was eatin in Taipei County, Taiwan by Sophie Kirpan as part of the CRC program.

This photograph was taken of Molly at the Chiang Kai-Shek Hall in Taipei City, Taiwan on CRC. Although the buildings look miniature, it is a big, beautiful memorial hall.


Molly and I are standing outside of the Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall in Taipei City, Taiwan on CRC. This large area hosts other buildings including museums, convert halls (frequently attended by the president) and gardens.
