Farewell Taiwan and Thank You!
... we managed to order for dinner that evening was some rice and cold tea!
We've learned such a lot since then and really embraced Taiwanese life, its people and much of the culture. If this was a school report, we would get decent marks for our work and lifestyle approach, but probably a D - for our Chinese if not an F. Yes we can string a sentence together, but we ...
Shadowfax
Yeah, I give my bikes nicknames. Yeah, I named a previous one "the Enterprise." I will not be judged for this.
