That’s when I came up with the idea of doing this podcast, I like to introduce this interesting island, especially from a foreigner's perspective.<br />
<br />
<br />
我看到一則電視新聞,一位外籍旅客在中正機場的出境大廳接受訪問,她說在她的國家裡,完全找不到任何台灣觀光團的行程或資訊,使我開始有了製作"What's up in Taiwan"的想法。<br />

The Taiwanese entrepreneurial spirit went very well with Elias personality; he generated a passion for new businesses and ideas. He felt that starting a personal business is rarely welcomed and encouraged as much in his mother country. <br /><br />Elias and his wife founded “<a href="http://www.enspyre.com/EN/index.htm" title="" target="_blank">Enspyre</a>” 4 years ago. His wife passed away from a sudden heart attack on the way of meeting a client a little while back. Still, Elias didn’t pack up and leave this island; he is still working very hard on this project that he and his darling wife started.
