What’s at Sun Moon Lake?

What’s at Sun Moon Lake?

Around a week ago I went to Sun Moon Lake (日月潭) and to the Aboriginal Culture Village (九族文化村) in Nantou county in Taiwan. I went with one of my cousins who is a tour guide, so he introduced my family to the place; even though I've been there twice before....

Trip to Kaohsiung (高雄)

I recently went to this place called Gaoxiong (Pinyin) or Kaohsiung (TW Pinyin; 高雄) and it is the first time I've been there since I've been in Taiwan. Usually, foreigners will travel around and go places; however, little old me has just primarily stayed in...

I’ve been a busy bee!

I don't know where to start! Although the beginning is usually the best place, I feel as if I haven't posted in a while, to which that is true. So I'm just going to post a few pictures that I've downloaded from my Facebook album recently. Other than my grandmother...

Trip to Dounan/Douliu

Today, I went to Dounan/斗南 to get my teeth checked at a dentist there. It's quite a distance away from Taichung, as apparently that dentist in Dounan/斗南 is one of the best in middle-Taiwan. Plus, I have a friend who works there and she recommends me to go there and...

A nice stroll around Taichung

Chinese: 今天我和我的狗狗在台中散步! English: Today, I walked around Taichung with my dog! Let's just say I might make it a habit to go around Taichung by myself in the morning just to look around, it's so peaceful and the exercise is good. Plus, it's like exploring, seeing places...

Taichung park and surrounding areas

Taichung park and surrounding areas

This morning I decided to go for a walk, as opposed to the running that I usually do. Instead of running inside the park (台中公園), I walked and I went sightseeing around the area where I live nearby. I took a few low quality pictures with my phone's camera. Here are the...

Travelling for me is more than just going to another place in the world. It is about learning new cultures, the history, and generally getting to see how things are done in other countries. There is a certain richness to those who are well travelled.
