EDIT: Sorry, the links weren’t working before, but I just fixed them! Enjoy! Note: This blog has moved! Please click here or the picture below to reach the new site! I’m here to make a rather important announcement: “I’m moving!” Moving where, you ask? Don’t worry–not away from my beautiful Taipei (that won’t be until a bit …
I landed in Sweden on Friday, which happened to be Midsommar Eve! I’ve always wanted to celebrate Midsommar in Sweden, so it was a dream come true. The land of the beautiful Swedes! I expected to be greeted by smiling faces and a sea of flower-crowned blonde heads. Alas, my first experience in Sweden involved … Continue reading
I woke up this morning, looked out the window, and oh, oh, oh, what a good day. A sunny day. A perhaps a bit-too-hot for fall day, but I know I’ll be retracting my opinion on that when the imminent rain rolls in. Grabbed my bike, grabbed my sister, and biked over to Zhongxiao Dunhua to go on an … Continue reading
(Skogafoss Waterfall on the southern coast) I think I did Iceland the wrong way. Actually, scratch that—I know I did Iceland the wrong way. Iceland is the hip blogger’s dream—espeically since Icelandair started a layover option on all their US-Europe routes, so many American bloggers and photographers have taken it upon themselves to drop by … Continue reading
So in case you’re wondering why I’m prattling on about Paris apartments again, it’s because I completely rescheduled my Paris trip with my family to the end of July, so I had to start looking for apartments all over again! Not that I mind, of course. I mean, if there were a job to just … Continue reading
I am so excited about my family’s Paris trip this year! I’ve been checking David Lebovitz’s site on the daily and making long, obsessive lists of restaurants…(I know, I know, I’ll tone it down!) He even has a Paris boulangerie/bakery app for the iPhone! Now if there were only an app that would magically make Parisians … Continue reading
My friend asked me to dig up some of my favorite photos of Taipei for a possible project & I just went a little crazy. Most of the photos are mine, one or two by friends snuck in there. Which ones are your favorites? She asked me to pick four photos. Let me know which ones … Continue reading
So mostly for my own amusement, (and to avoid studying for accounting), I’m going to post a long & incredibly useless rating of Kinfolk, based on my very own standard of grading hipster magazines. I went to a cafe and they had all the issues I’m missing, so I took a bunch of pictures…of pictures–just … Continue reading
So, thanks to the magical books.com.tw, I got my issues of Kinfolk in today! So basically, after 2 hours of flipping through the magazines from cover-to-cover, I came to this conclusion: #1. The writers in this magazine surely have to be trolling, because I can’t even comprehend how someone can type a phrase like “Our tree, and the precious transient gift of … Continue reading
So it might have to do with the fact that I’ve been horribly lax in moving the current subscribers to this blog over to my new site. WordPress is working on that right now; so you lovely people don’t have to lift a finger! In a few hours (hopefully)–you’ll be receiving updates from my new … Continue reading
So I’m hardly in the position to be talking about dates, for the usual and obvious reasons, expat girl problems, yadda yadda, there’s so few dateable boys in Taiwan, I might as well have moved to a nunnery, blah blah. We’re not here to talk about my problems. We’re here to talk about yours. You like this girl. … Continue reading
good day, taipei
