One of my favourite activities for a long evening is to walk around in the nightmarket. There I can taste different food, and look at the large choice of shops. I can get anything…

Taichung at daytime
City center of Taichung Together with Martin and Julian I decided on a free day to take the bus to the center of Taichung for a first look around. This is not easy to achieve without any knowledge in Chinese: all the bus information is only in Chinese language. The best way to plan a…
Student clubs at Feng Chia University
The last days passed without me writing anything for my blog – so now it’s about time! I want to write about my first experience in a local nightclub and an afternoon in the city center of Taichung. But this will have to wait until my next post. Today I just want to share my…
Feng Chia Nightmarket
One week ago I arrived to Taiwan. Three days ago also my roommate Magalie from France arrived. Before she arrived I had spent most of my time just walking around in the area – checking out what shops we have here and of course exploring the nightmarket. I didn’t know any other people yet. Now…

I haven’t started learning Chinese so far – I am curious how it will…
