Congratulations! Congrats, Meghan! Sounds like its been an intense, growing, exhausting and transformative summer, typhoon and all. Lots of folks are proud of you back in Newton -- it's been fun following along your journey via your blog. Thanks for sharing the journey with us
YOYOOOYO Heyy... i want one of those birds...ill be expecting one. Jk but bring me some kind of a souvonir haha and like uncle mike said hurry home lol
Hi Meg,Great pictures of Lu Gang,etc.The clay bird making looked very interesting indeed.It is unfortunate the lantern maker was not in.That would have been awesome.Great shots.Hurry home.
Interesting. Do you think these restaurants are opened up by immigrants/emigrants who want to bring a taste of home with them, hence they're genuine? Or do you think they're professional chefs who know how to make good food?
:) Good to know you're able to eat lots of tasty things.
Hot stuff is a bit interesting to get used to, but it's good to try a little spicy and then slowly increase it. Great for clearing stuffy noses! :)
Sounds great Sounds like you're having a great time. This site is a pretty good way to keep people up to date on what you're doing. Hope you continue to have a grand experience.
Man that's crazy! How much does food cost there? Imagining what it must be like to eat out all the time gives me a headache. haha Sounds like it costs tons of money.
That waiter thing sort of sounds like dim sum, except they don't make you pay immediately, and they stamp your card with additional stuff after you get your order and the carts go around. heh Now that makes me want to yum cha.
Yo! Hey Meg! We all miss you and I hope you're having a blast. It soudns like your learning a lot... that's awesome... The scooters look like they were a lot of fun, I'm jealous haha. Well good luck with everything I'll be keeping up with your blogs now that I have the website! You better bring me back a souvonir (spelling??? lol)! K well love ya ~Kayla
HAPPY 4th of JULY Hi Meg,
Happy 4th! Loved the descriptions of the interesting foods. Am totally fascinated by "stinky tofu".
Glad to hear things are well. Can't wait to see more photos!
Some of the malls are huge (13 floors) and some are smaller (3 floors). The one with 13 floors, the floors are circular with a big hole in the middle where they have nets so you won't fall down!
Water's safe Don't worry about the water for brushing teeth, its safe, but I wouldn't go around drinking it. Ive been here a year and have yet to have a problem, good luck here in Taiwan and enjoy your time!!!
Turns out it was a kind of soy bean jelly or something. I've had bubble tea, yes. It's very good, though the tapioca balls are a little strange(the texture, that is).
I am currently a junior in college and I am majoring in Chinese Language and Literature. To supplement my studies, I studied in Taiwan for 2 months in the summer of 2007. In the Spring of 2009 I will be studying in Shanghai for a semester.
