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.

Fighting panic and taking risks

Taipei night view secrets Visiting Elephant mountain at night is not that special. You get a really sunning view on Taipei at night. And a lot of tourism. In fact it is special but not really nice to go there. To avoid tourism I planned a thrilling small hike using the unlighted paths and experience the vibrant jungle at night. Yes, that’s quite frightening but at some point I got curious. While taking pictures of Taipei at the top of Elephant mountain I saw a sign to Muzhi Mountain. Half an hour, 1.5 kilometers, dark unlit path until another peak. Go for it. Heading upwards to the platform my feelings were thrilling. The darkness got more as closer I got to Mountain Muzhi. The path got smaller and the jungle got louder. I want to give you an impression of my journey: It is dark. You are alone. Separated from others. Nothing to hear, except the whirring insects. Wind blows slightly through the huge bamboo. Somewhere a creaking noise. Suddenly a loud rustling right next to me....

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 mo...
