About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travelling and learning new things

ABOUT ME

A Yogi, a Toastmaster, a runner, a hiker, a mountain climber are titles to discribe myself.

I just finish my 7-year military service as a Captain in the Army Airborne. Its very amazing experiences, i learn small unit combat, shooting, mountaineering, leadership and a lot of shit administration works. Very unforgettable memory in a life.

I am the person with many passions, esp for languages and mountaineering. I made a lot of foreign friends in Taiwan for improving my English and knowing the whole world. I hope to learn Japanese in the future. Also, i learned a lot things about Mountaineering from the Army, like rock climbing, river tracing, survival skills. My Army job made me closer to the nature and to learn the ture meaning of life.

Taiwan is simply amazing!
If u have a chance to come and stay for a while, you will stunned by its nature, food and hospitality. I never thought that Taiwan had so much fun, and it is so, Taiwan is really a treasure, which I will spend my whole life to preserve its culture and promote its tourism to my foreign friends.

Before you come to Taiwan, do read some of these book or websites,
A guidebook of Lonely-planet-Taiwan,
Richard Saunder's One day trip in Taipei 1 and 2,
An organization of Taiwanese American,
Michael Turton's the view from Taiwan,
Anthony's Forumosa,
Janet Hsieh's Fun Taiwan,
Podcast of What is up in Taiwan, etc......
