Welcome to Kaohsiung

When we reached Kaoshiung, we were greeted by a woman in sunglasses, and the words 'welcome' and 'Kaohsiung' on her forehead and lips.

The first thing we did was to head towards the first bubble tea we saw - 50 Lan. I


Super cool! It tasted like the KOI bubble tea in Singapore, bu the price of a cup of bubble tea in Singapore!!  This is awesome :D 


Land of Bubble Tea

Welcome to the land of Bubble Tea, the land of idol dramas, talented pop stars and soap operas. haha.
Arrived in Taoyuan Airport - 13 May.
Here is our Bubble Itinerary! :D



















Since our flight landed at around 11pm, we checked in at Luckynews classic hotel near Taoyuan before leaving for Kaohsiung the next day. I was amazed by their service there. Airport pickup (if you book the rooms with them directly), friendly and courteous staff, nice room, comfy bed. Breakfast is also delivered right to our door!

Munich - in four hours - 3rd Jan 2011

First time in Germany, first time in Europe, and I am alone. I can't believe it!
19 hours of transit time in Munich - what else to do but EXPLORE! :D

Plane landed at 10am Munich time (5am Montreal time) & I was sooo sleepy..zzz.
- I left my hand luggage at the left baggage corner.
- Headed straight to the information counter to grab the map and asked for directions to the city.
- Changed all my Canadian dollars to Euros
- Bought the train ticket (10 Euros)
And here I go.. with a map, my backpack and my camera. ;)


Munich is a really nice place!
 And I picked up some German words too - Ausgang, Danke, Guten Tag, Willkommen.
After 4-5 hours of exploring, I went back to the airport to sleep (jet lagged).
