Conflicts

Wow not easy. Maybe another reason why I am not so happy at the moment.

First of all: I want to be here and in Germany at the same time. I got a bit homesick the last days/weeks and I had to admit that it is not easy to be alone and to have nobody here in person.
On the other hand I want to travel and I want to make all this experiences, see the world.
I just had a several conversations with my Mum and my best friend. They both said this is the experience you make and that they would wonder if everything would be easy. They are right and I am happy to have my family, my girlfriend and my friends who stabilize me whenever I need them.

Making decisions

Maybe you read my last entry. I want to change the duration of my stay and come home earlier. The decision is firm and I am in conversation with my boss. Another idea is to change my circumstances so it gets more comfortable for me. My uncle inspired me to change my days off to Sunday afternoon and Monday. If this gets possible I would have the ability to travel over night and relax more. This sounds very good to me and I will do my best to reach a level where the balance between work and my personal wishes are well.

Nice community

The hostel is a nice place to meet many people from many different cultures. And to make music with all of them. I really enjoy that!
I practice guitar and some people would just sit down and start to listen. Sometimes we are about six or seven people singing and jamming together. Everyone is from a different place like China, Korea, USA, Canada, Taiwan (of course), Malaysia, Hong kong, Singapore... So we started talking and share our stories and thoughts.
That was the point where I started to think about a "hostel tour" in Taiwan. I just have my backpack and my guitar and travel around the hostels in Taiwan to have a nice time with the people.
Music connects!

I just found a coffee shop! Great coffee and amazing shop!

Maybe Taiwanese style? An old woman in a wheelchair does not give a fu** and just crosses the road :D

Ha! Some German culture found! Taiwanese Weissbier, such a nice taste!

I visited Taipei 101 today. It took one month to get there. I also visited Elephant mountain, but more of that on Friday/Saturday.

Thanks for reading this blog. (I almost got 1500 views…. You are amazing. Tank you!)

As always: feel free to leave your impressions, opinions and ideas below! Maybe you can write what you want to see and I can take photos of it? I want this to get more interactive ;)

See you!

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

Why a day in Manila will change you. #story

It feels very weird to start writing again. I had an amazing time and met dozens of people. Sharing all these wonderful and terrifying moments is a pleasure for me. So, I guess this blog is not finished by now. I guess it will not finish at all because I like writing and keeping my English on a good level. I love sharing experiences and stories. This is not only for you, but for me as well. When I am writing I reflect and remember everything, I hear the waves and feel the sand slowly floating away below my feet. I can escape Germany for a few moments and get back into this time meet the people again and relive the certain feelings that I had. The future and meaning of this blog is taking you with me into this wide world and see what I saw. My intention is giving you a moment of silence, escape and distraction in a business world, which is mostly controlled by money and effort and not by feelings and emotions. Enjoy :) Manila: I left the rai...
