Just a quick note as I am sat here at the airport awaiting my Thai Airway flight for Taiwan. I am more excited than I am nervous, and I suppose that because the lack of sleep last night and finally being at the airport has balanced out my nerves quite a bit. I'm excited that I will meet new people and see new sights all on my own. Things have been looking rather good for this trip thus far, and my travels up to Seoul airport ran smoothly! I never had to wait, nor had to rush at any of my transportation points today. If I did endure a short wait it gave me enough time to grab a bite or a drink to replenish myself.
Admitingly, I was a tad bit doubtful that I could get myself anywhere in Asia by myself, and then I suddenly realized that I did manage well on my own to get myself here in the first place! Sometimes the world seems like a bigger place because we're so afraid to see the things we don't know or are not accustomed to. We blind ourselves by the axieties of all the possible 'worse case scenarios', and are unable to see what actually is there.
WEll, until the next time when I return to South Korea I will leave you with some good pictures and details about my adventures in Taiwan!

Taiwan Plans
Well, to put it short and sweet. Things have been off the handle for quite sometime, but I have realigned myself and have many things to look forward to!
I have a vacation at the end of September that I have been looking forward to for quite sometime. I have been planning to go camping and now at the last minute, as per usual, I have changed my mind. I was going to plan this camping trip that would bring me to know more about the country I have habitated for the last 8 months! Yeah, I can't believe it's been this long and it past by so fast!
So, for my vacation I am going to Taiwan on my own and do the couchsurfing.com If you don't know what it is, it's great for travelers who wish to keep it simple and also keep it super cheap! It's this thing where people allow you to stay with them while you travel for free. I am going to do the west coast of Taiwan, including Taipei and the its tallest skyscraper in the world, and down to the south in Kenting to see one of the world class National Park. It's going to be good, and super safe for solo travelers. I hit the jackpot because it's only a 200thou won flight and it's usually more than that!
I will save the whole entire trip's details for when I get back!
