Traveling!

Unbelievable but true! I t is Christmas and my time in Taiwan will end soon. I will work two weeks more in office and then I will have a two weeks travel all around Taiwan!
I am very exited, curious what I will see and experience on my journey! During my trip I will do a lot of hiking and try to get off the beaten track. At the moment my itinerary is almost finished and I can start booking the Hostels and Hotels to stay.
Especially my three day trip to Lanyu, a small island close to the southern part of Taiwan, is making me feel happy. But also the stunning and bewitching areas of Taroko, Alishan and Sun Moon Lake create a feeling which is hard to describe. A mix of anticipation and challenge but with the small part of insecurity which makes everything so exiting and fascinating.
The weather should be nice during the two weeks. In the south it is usually warm and dry these times.
And of course I will take photos and share them with you!

After traveling around Taiwan one week of office working is waiting in Taipei. After this week I will travel from Taiwan to Palawan (Philippines) to get one week of nice beaches and warm weather, swimming and relaxing. A few days later I will visit a good friend in Tokyo and one week later I will be in Penang, where another good friend of mine spent one year! I hope for some good advice and hidden spots.
Hong Kong will be my last visit for a few days. Then back to Germany!


My current feelings?

Exited, curious but also frightened and a bit unsure. A huge cocktail of different moods. But the thrill of anticipation prevails. The anticipation of seeing new things and organizing everything by myself! This might be a bit stressful, but the feeling to be independent and take all the responsibility is really nice. I have to feeling to get mature. And that this is a nice feeling, not a bad one.

In comparison to the feelings I had when I traveled to Taiwan I would say that I gained a lot more experience in organizing myself and got more confident in being alone and travel by oneself. I am not so scared of the new situation coming up.



Photos

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 ...
