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.

Place my luggage and go somewhere to breakfast and check in a few hours later.
Do something to get over the jet lag.
Maybe skype with my family. Depends on the time shift.

First days

The First day will be off and I will try to get over the jet lag.
Next day work in FlipFlop Hostel (http://www.flipflophostel.com/) will start at 9:30am until 1:00pm.
Until monday the afternoon will be off. From monday on I will work at Topology Travel (http://www.topologytravel.com/) in the afternoon.

Spare time?

On Tuesdays I don't have to work at FlipFop Hostel and I have the weekend off at Topology Travel.
I will use my spare time to learn some Mandarin and see the city, maybe visiting the local capoeira group (Capoeira Camara). If I will find a nice guitar store and have enough money I will buy a guitar and make some music.

I will update you about my Hobbies and what I will do in my spare time.

    One doesn't get over jet-lag - one just sleeps and waits forthe body to adapt, usually an hour time difference per day. The younger you are, the better...

Blogging is about...

Sun Moon Lake Sunrise Hey and hello! I arrived in Germany about two months ago and had a lot of work and organisation to do. But by now I have enough spare time to share all the stories and pictures from the last three months. For me blogging is something like a diary. Moreover it is a way to share my thoughts and moments with you and anyone who wants to read them, I like the freedom of doing this and I really want to catch up writing again. I will try to give an update every week. A few photos and a relating story. Furthermore the stories will have certain labels, where you can find them. Additional there will be other labels for different locations. Example: "story, Asia" or "story, Germany". I hope you are looking forward to this project with the same thrill of anticipation as I do. See you next week! Lukas

About my last days in Asia

The last part of my journey through Asia Penang Again. The sticky and humid air surrounds me and gives me the feeling of being back “home” in Taiwan. But yet different, because now I am in Penang, where I never would have been without a friend of mine, Micha. He went there for one year and told me some nice stories about the people, food and especially the church he worked in. He made me so curious that I booked the flight from Tokyo.  You may ask yourself why I decided to fly such a complicated route. Geographically it makes no sense, but this route is simply the cheapest one. So I landed in Penang and took a bus to Georgetown, the world heritage part of Penang. One difference I recognized immediately was that this country is a Muslim country. The women were wearing headscarves and it was the first time I saw mosques in Asia. On my first day I explored Georgetown and all the beautiful old buildings. The hostel I stayed in was close to a district called “Little ...
