Shortly after Thanksgiving my fiancée and I made the decision to move to Yangmei, Taiwan and work as English Teachers at a school called, “American Eagle Institute.” It’s about an hour train ride from Taipei and there is not a lot here besides factories, some farms on the outskirts, a few schools and your typical local restaurants and businesses. With that said it really isn’t really a bad place, but it isn’t the most interesting place in the country.
We are new here and have not had the chance to get out a whole lot. During one weekend we were able to take a short trip to Taipei but we were only there for a couple of hours. Besides this I have explored some trails around Shih-men Reservoir, a few local markets, the farms behind our apartment, restaurants and a few temples that I stumbled across.
There are positive and negative aspects to anyplace you live no matter how nice it is. It is my goal to give Taiwan a fair chance and find things that are nice in their own way. This blog is from the perspective of two EFL teachers that have taught in South Korea, Russia, France and now here in Taiwan. I hope someone out there finds it useful, interesting or just something to read for a few.
Thank you for support and checking out this Blog.
