In the apartment

Temple in Alishan












Well, all moved in! Yesterday Qiuxing (秋杏) came down on the bus from Xinzhu and took me to get bedding and towels, then we did some sightseeing on her nephew's scooter. It was quite entertaining because she was driving me, and I'm this huge white person, legs practically dragging along the street, being driven by a mid-forties aged small asian woman. We turned a few heads, that's for sure! As far as the place I live, there is a supermarket two blocks down which is awesome. It has a lot of Western food there. There is also a vegetarian restaurant a few blocks down so everything is pretty convenient here.

I should meet the people at my school on Thursday, but I'm told they will love you because the teacher at their school last year was a bit crazy, and wore see-through mini skirts to teach and whatnot. So I imagine it will go well :) Today, off to explore the area around my apartment.
