I’ve avoided this post.
I left Taiwan September 1, and it’s now November. Being back for two full months: you’d think I’d have the hang of it by now. For the most part, I guess I do, but there are times when I’ll suddenly get a craving for food from a Hsinchu restaurant. Or I’ll miss my friends and turn to Facebook, instead of my phone, to check in on them.
After spending a lot of time complaining about Taiwan and having my battles with my life there, I’m happy to say I look back on my two years there fondly. Sure, I remember the frustrations, the pain of being separated from those near to my heart. More, though, I remember the people, the experiences, and the joys that helped make me the me I am now.
Taiwan, I love you. Thank you. I’ll be back to visit soon.
I guess this means it’s really over.
No time for regrets 
Aw I love taiwan too! I go back every year to Kaoshiung and I always get sad coming back.
There are some incredible people there who changed my life. I can’t wait to go back and visit!
Remember when you used to update this blog? Yeah, me neither…
I moved back to the States September 1, and am not nearly as inspired by Dallas as I was by Taiwan. I suppose that’s a bit selfish to say, but it’s where my mind has been.
I’m hoping to have more travel adventures later this year, but I won’t know until later if that’s really going to happen.
In the meantime, how are you?
Dallas, and not Austin? What are you up to these days?
I’ve been alright. Took a trip to India and then switched jobs; new workplace has been keeping me busy.
Dallas is where the job is. My job search was rough, and even now I’m struggling. I do marketing and accounts receivable for a company here while dreaming of more traveling.
How was India?
India was interesting, as ever. Was in Delhi for a friend’s wedding, but also made a trip to Agra and Fatehpur Sikri to take in some history. Lots of photo opportunities there, that’s for sure.
