From there they moved to Taiwan, where he lived until college. He worked hard to attain his American dream, which included the freedom to travel the world. With a keen interest in civilization, he was extremely excited to learn about the struggles and achievements of human communities across the world. He hopes the travel notes that came out of those journeys will spark his readers' own desires to see this amazing world of ours. Wu lives in Potomac, Maryland, U.S.A., with his wife. Their children are all grown up, and live in various cities across the U.S.
