Arrived

(Wrote that on flight)
Only two hours to go... I am feeling a bit inconveniant due to a cold, but for the rest fine.

I am very confident with the sirvice of the airlines and the kindness of the personal. First you have to know that this was my first flight. So I had no clear image of what to do in which prder at the airport.

In Düsseldorf I just went to the information desk. Due to my online check they sent me directly to the drop off. The lady at the drop off station was very kind and checked me in for my second flight from Vienna to Taipei. In Vienna I just walked to the other gate and directly into the plane. Now on the second flight I asked if I can get an emergency seat. I had luck and got a place for humans with long legs in economy class. The meals are of good quality concerning the circumstances. The flight personal is very kind and polite (I know it's their Job to do so) let me give you am example: I asked if they have a power outlet with USB-port to charge my mobile. Due to the missing power outlet and the USB-port the stewardess gave me her own mobile battery charger.

First days

The first day I arrived was very challangeing. I discovered the real vlaue of air conditioning. The weather in Taiwan is really weired. The humid air doubles the effect of 30 degrees and makes you feel like you are in a sauna. 
So I arrived in Taiwan at about 6 in the morning alreday tired. Ich went outside and the furst feeling was like a punch in your face, due to the humid weather outside and the (what we would call) "normal" air in the airport. My glasses fogged immediately. Concluding my first experience with taiwan weather was like "WOW, I didn't expect that" 
This impression is the most thing I thought within the last days. Nothing is like I imagined it but I am amazed by Taiwan and the people here. I feel welcome.

Facets

Hello Everybody! A lot of things happened within the last two weeks. Now I found some time to share a few things with you: Music I found a great place to practice drums. The music store where I bought my guitar offers a room with a drum set for 50 NTD per hour. That is about 1,25 EUR. Incredibly cheap! I try to go there two times a week to keep my level and have some fun! I am really happy I found this! Taipei at it's best Another thing I just discovered is Taipei. Yes I have been here now for almost three months and just now I discover Taipei's facets. This city is so amazing. You can reach almost everything you want within one hour. If you want something historical, visit Dadaocheng, the part of the city where Taipei started growing. From there the aboriginal tribes sold their goods to China. This part has a lot of this feeling. I don't know how to describe this right. You feel like traveled back in time. Many old buildings, no tourism, a lot of old people sell...

Surprising facts, sun, moon and surfing

Wow, surprising stats! I just discovered that this blog got over 1100 views. This is amazing, I never expected to reach that goal within this time. Thank you! This is a great response, I really like to write this blog and I like it even more if you like it. The last entries reached almost 100 each. Furthermore I got a great response from Germans as well as from Taiwanese. Especially the feedback from Taiwanese was cool, because I could offer them a new perspective on Taiwan, Taipei and the everyday life here. THANK YOU! Where sun and moon meet Not completely true but Sun Moon Lake is called like this, because the left side looks like a moon and the right side like a sun. I was invited to join the trip by my boss from Topology. He just got married last Wednesday. I really feel honored I to be invited to his wedding as well as the brief journey. In fact it was really nice and really strange. We visited a old paper mill and a honey farm. Then headed towards th...
