Hiking in the Taroko Gorge National park is my favorite! It is one of the 'one thousand places you should visit before you die!'  Check that off my list;)

This rocky shore beach surrounded by mountains was Gorgeous!

Hualien is so Beauitful:)

I'm Having a Blast in Taiwan!

I am having a great time staying busy with school and exploring Taiwan.  The people here are so kind and patient and I have made some really great friends!  The weekend before last I survived the fourth largest typhoon that has ever hit Taiwan--Typhoon Jangmi! Us girls stayed inside all weekend reading, playing cards and reading.  I visited the National Palace Museum! I was able to see and learn about some incredible Chinese art that was thousands of years old!
