Long time no see

Long time no see, or 好久不見!

This time I'm writing from city of Kaohsiung in Taiwan. I will be staying here for one month and I hope to learn a bit Mandarin.

When I was on the plane (19 hours, two stops in Doha and Hong Kong) I had a million ideas what to write in this post, but as usual nothing comes to mind when I sit down and open a text editor.

The journey was pretty uneventful, with the exception of a very short time in Hong Kong where I had to find China Airlines transfer desk and literally run to the gate which was located about one hundred lightyears from where I was. I kept waving my ticket which clearly stated "boarding 16:10" at the baggage control and fortunately everyone was understanding, as it was already 16:25. I managed to get there on time, but the airport staff checked my temperature two times (probably because of my red face and the fact that it was about 40 C).

When I managed to land in Taiwan, I met a couple of people from the Kaohsiung Normal University where the course will take place and got to the dorm. The dorm is a bit scary,  (maybe I'll post some pictures later), but fortunately I live on the 5th floor so there are no cocroaches (BTW, those beasts are HUGE here).

So now I'm waiting for the course to start... I hope I'll have time to post something pretty soon.
