宜兰 武鳞 , 苗栗

Vity & Eric specially spend one day to bring e to Yilan, Wu Lin Shan to see Cherry Blossom.


Wow! It's the first time in my 26 years of life that i see Cherry Blossom, and is soooo soooo sooo many lo! Very nice.. keep snapping snapping non stop.. hee...

For the last weekend in Taiwan, Vity brought me back to her hometown in Miaoli. they have the Lantern festival there and i also think is a gd chance for me to experience and see another place in Taiwan.

Miaoli is a more country place but more city like than in Heng Chun. It is actually very big... much bigger than i thought. The houses were also very big, i guess is the norm compared to the houses in the busy squeezy cities.

Vity's parents, Luo Pa and Luo Ma are very friendly and nice seniors, i enjoy sitting in the living room muching tidbits, drinking team and chatting with them. Very cozy and i feel so comfortable.

Am very thankful to all the nice and warmth people i meet along the way that make my Lone travelling no lonely at all and keep me warmth in this cold weather.... =D

After bidding farewell to the guys at Heng Chun, head to next destination at Chiayi, Alishan.

After hours of bus-HSR-bus, finally reached Alishan around 5pm in the evening. the screen at the big open carpark shows 11 degrees. Cold....

Check in to hotel and start putting on more clothing. Even indoor, the temperature is only 12 degrees.  The only comfortable place is the heated mattress. The hotel is not that great, the corridor is abit dark and with the cold weather is does feels abit creepy at times. But i didn't want to think too much about it.

Went to walk around the hotel area before the sun sets and back to hotel to rest early cos got to wake up super early a 4:30am for sunrise trip the next day.

Din really sleep much, super cold outside but in the bed is very warm. I din shower though.. cos is soooo cold!!! Wake up on time, slightly earlier infact and walk to the 7-11. Need to walk up a short fleet of stairs, but am panting like mad... than i remb "oh, i'm on highland" haa...

 Bought some hot stuff to warm up the body and than hop ontop the tour van. Meet a group of Singaporeans around my age, and we later tour "Fen qi hu" together. Is a town middle of the moutain and where the train used to pass by to get from Chiayi train station to Alishan train station.

It was a weekday so the town is very 'dead' and the old street has very little shops open.

A must try at this town is the railway bian dang (lunch box). They have it in different containers, and you can keep them as souvenir.

I arrived in Taipei to Vity's place at night.....

一次任性的享乐....

偶然之下，发现7点前的draft. 

7 years, people come, people stay, people go. We all grew, some wiser some not so...

这一篇post应该在3个月前就写完的,可是我今天才开始...

工作了这么多年,一直想可以放个长假,什么都不想,很自我的到国外去走走.

刚出社会工作时,存了一年的钱,就为了能出国一次. 后来,比较能负担了,就有好几次短暂的出游,3-4天. 都是和朋友或家人一起.

直到去年,我鼓起勇气,一个人背着包包,踏上除了Singapore,我最爱的国家,台湾!那时,短短的4天,遇见很多人,和经理很多第一次!还又遇到台风!哈..

不过,那4天,不算什么...

2011年,还在过农历年的时候,我又背起那大大的背包,一个人飞去台湾!这次,要待两个星期!! 14天以上!好兴奋...

在去之前,安排了在恒春换宿,每天工作4小时,换一天两餐与住宿.以来,能体验在异乡打工生活,跟贴切了解在那里的生活,二来能省钱. 一举两得!

<初夏、日和>是我打公换宿的民宿,是在网上查到的.

老板,小罗是广告的美术指导,听说很'红'哦! 光看他对民宿设计的要求就看得出他的品味. 初下是一间以白为主的房子,独东出组. 没个角落的设计都很特别,我很喜欢,一到屋里,就有很开心很舒服的感觉. =D

我就主在初下附近的宿舍,是透天的3尘楼房子.我和啊廖共主一间在2楼的房间. 其他的都是男生,小罗(老板),大哥,阿洛和阿信,当然没忘了,"谁"-狗, 还有另一只狗和黑猫.

他们人都很随和,我很享受当工作完后,大家围在电视机前一起吃饭,看电视,聊天.有很幸福的感觉,饭也特别好吃 =>

午饭时间过后,就是我的自由活动时间. 我在来之前,都没什么'做功课"也不知道有什么好玩的地方.阿洛就带我到车站拿了几张地图,然后,我就在上网查了一下,就骑着阿廖的"Autobike"到处闲逛! 骑着车在乡下的路上,有一重莫名的快乐!会对自己笑.我想这就是我要找的感觉!

在恒春的一个星期,一转眼就过了. 心理有不舍但还是得说再见.排张团照流纪念,只可惜阿洛放假.

很感谢在恒春遇见的没一位,不管大人,小孩,老人. 你们为我的旅程增色许多!我会在回来!
