As I've grown older, I discovered that I actually like traveling but flying still makes me anxious. Here are some of the latest places that I've been and in this age of Instagram, some photos for you to enjoy from them. After what seemed like a lifetime of preparation, I finally made a trip back to Korea to see the Country of my birth!
The first few months of the year were filled with learning Hangeul, pronunciations and trying not to get everything too confused with the Mandarin that was still sitting somewhere in my brain. I hope you enjoy the experience and stories as much as I did! Somehow, I managed to navigate through the airport, customs and find my gate.
I also spent some time wandering the airport and browsing the stores - a concept not really understood in Asia. When I finally landed in Taipei, I worked to find my way out through Customs and meet Dad to get to the airport. Once I was settled, we walked over to the Raohe Street Night Market to shop and find something to eat.
Then it was finally time to wash the plane travel off and rest for my first official day in Taipei! Then it was time to go and meet Jim. We agreed to meet up by the Taipei building, which was lucky as our hotel had a free shuttle bus to the building!
We found Jim and explored the perimeter and inside the , before meeting up with one of his friends for lunch. We ended up at Curry House Coco for Japanese-style curry, meanwhile Dad abandoned us to go and get sushi at another restaurant; even in Taipei he wants sushi!
