There is this restaurant that caught my eyes because it’s said it was from Louisiana, where Carrie is from. Quick recap, Carrie is a Southerner (they like to call themselves that) who had a layover to Taiwan for about half a day and the chairman of the IYDU, Jason, connected us together. That kind of reminded me that when Jason gave Tony a souvenir he claimed was an “alligator” figure, that showed up in this restaurant, too. It has about 5 chains in Taiwan but there is this very one in Taichung. We went there for an afternoon tea, but they seem to be famous for its brunch, not the perfect timing! Most guests are families with little kids, I thought it was due to the sand playground they provided inside. We got our seats on the second floor, I liked our seats, it’s sofa and it felt comfy. We checked out the menu but found out there were not many options for us just looking for small foods. However, we still wanted to try their classic one and that’s the, wait for it, chicken wings!...

It was a typhoon day in a typhoon season. Everyone was told to stay home but the weather seemed just fine, thank God I live in Taichung. My parents took me to Tung Hai University before visiting grandma. There were only a handful of people on the road and even in the university. Maybe due to the raindrop, the streets and buildings looked different, and I got some pictures to prove. Tung Hai is definitely one of the most beautiful universities, in the world. I wish foreigners can understand sometimes rankings are not so accurate, just like it is underestimated.  If you only knew the Luce Chapel when it comes to Tung Hai, then here are some views that are going to blow your mind to the sky. The rain has made it more charming Mushrooms are sprouting out so fast Inside of the Luce Chapel But you are in Taiwan, man It just looks a bit out of place.. Where you can get fresh milk and stuff to cool you down

So I watched “ 陣頭 ” ( Din Tao : Leader of the Parade ) three years ago, and that’s about time I knew about 九 天 民 俗 技 藝 團 (ChioTian). But, I didn’t know where this group is located until recently. I had been there once yet I didn’t have a closer look. This time, I went with my parents. Many people actually go there ‘cause there is a beautiful forest, like in the realm of fantasy. You can go to Instagram and search # 九天森林 , there you will find out the truth that those visitors are coming from other cities.  The path towards the forest It's potato-patahto season The forest has probably overshadowed 九天民俗技藝團 . We parked out car and walked a little bit inside, first we saw farms, farms and farms. It’s all laterite which is good to plant potatoes. Peasants are busy reaping these sweet potatoes and turning them into cash. Under such toxic weather, we seemed a tad out of place as they were still working. About 10 minutes of walking (there are signs all the way) the forest...
