Time flies

Hello everyone! 

I couldn't find the time to keep my blog updated and here is only a small update. I had a lot to do the last week.

My time here is almost gone and I just started to say goodbye. At least it was only for three months but I got quite familiar to Taipei. Not least because of my job as tour guide and a part of me will stay here. I will miss Taipei definitely and hope to come back in future.

The last week I spent a lot of time planing and booking my accommodation for my trip all over Taiwan. I will start from 5th January to Hualien, travel down the east coast, take some time in the south and visit an island before going to Alishan to see a spectacular sunrise and Sun-Moon-Lake for a beautiful scenic area and coming up the west coast to Taipei again. 15 Days of traveling. I am very exited to see what Taiwan has in store!

After my travel I will stay in Taipei for one more week to finish my internship at Topology. Within this week I will write some kind of thesis which is about the curiosities and strange things in Taiwan compared to Germany. I really hope to post a version of this here to share with all of you!

That's it for the moment. I have to sleep now to do my work well tomorrow. Maybe I will find some time next week to write a little bit more! 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

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 ...
