In April 2016, she accomplished her dream of climbing Australian highest peak of Koshichuk, which has an altitude of 2,228 meters, accompanying her family. Since then, has dreamed of climbing the Great Wall. Taylor now plans to focus on her swimming training and hopes to participate in the 2020 Tokyo Paralympics.
