This will be my fist days in Taiwan/18 days

Flights I will start in Düsseldorf airport at 8:50am. That means for me to stand up early at 4:30am,  to be at the airport at 6:40am. From Düsseldorf the flight will take 1h 30m to Vienna. In Vienna I have to change the Gate and take the flight at 11:35am to Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport. If everything works out I will be in Taipeh at 6:05 on 17th September. The first things I will do Get my luggage and draw some money with my VISA for the first days. Buy a local SIM-card to be available on mobile and get free WIFI. Find my way to the Hostel.

New challanges/Getting everything together/23 days

Some difficulties are heading up in front of me Unfortunately I got injured on Friday last week. While playing soccer a teammate accidently ran into me and now my intraarticular ligament at my right ankle is torn. So I will do my best to get on my feet in time and all things done. I am glad to have a great family which supports me. This is kind of a new challange. Now the actual topic this blog is about: Step by step Sill much to do but the lists are getting smaller and smaller!! YAY! I was at SportScheck and found a few things like eye-shades and a nice neckpillow, but there are still many things I need to find. Additional everything I buy has to be as small as possible due to weight limits. I think some of the stuff I will buy in the internet like a keyboard for my iPad or a small sleeping bag. Another weired thing is the financial situation. I opened a extra account with a bank to get a free VISA-card, which allows me to draw money without costs all over the world. I a

Planing how to plan/25 days left

First entry/Four weeks left

This is my blog. Everything about my experiencens before and in Taiwan will be written down here Mondays and Fridays. Wow only four weeks left until I will fly to Taiwan and start a new chapter, only 29 days left in germany. Planning takes over.  What am I going to take with me? A backpack or a big suitcase, what is more useful? Laptop, iPad, how much clothes? What will I need in Taiwan? Decisions I have to make and with every decision I make I get farther away from Germany. This is going to be great! How am I? I am very exited how everything will change. What will happen within the five months? Which good and bad experiences am I going to make? Other People and another culture. New living circumstances. Abroad, not at home. A bit of fear mixed with happyness and exitement, curiosity. All in all I am looking forward with a thrill of anticipation.
