Taiwan Adventure

Everyone at Keio University seems to be traveling over the two month break we have. After living in Japan for about 6 months, I did need to stay away from Tokyo and I am sure everyone felt the same way. So, I decided to go to Taiwan where my other friend from UH is doing his exchange program. At first, Taipei, the capital of Taiwan, seemed like Tokyo 15 years ago. The city is transforming into a bigger and busier city like Tokyo. One thing I really liked was that food and transportation fee are amazingly cheap compared to Tokyo. It was an awesome feeling to look down the city from the top of the 101 building, the tallest building in the world. Taiwan was definitely a place to visit.
