First Day in Taiwan


July last year is the first time I step my feet in Taiwan. I was so happy and excited for the next 30 days I will spent a great journey in Taiwan. I arrived at 11 am in Taoyuan International airport. Even though the airport is not as grand as Changi Airport, Singapore but it still have wonderfull structure that you can easily enjoy.

There are also some mini stone structure. Actually I want to find out what is this but I dont have time to read them because the student from National Taiwan University (NTU) who picked us already waiting. I am not alone in this journey because there are other student Heder from Indonesia and Clara from Singapore that have the same flight as me. After clearing the immigration I met Ben outside and he told us that we need to move in the other gate to get Yu jeong student from Korea. Ben also help us to get taiwan simcard for our smart phone so we can stay in touch.

The airport building is in modern architecture and also decorated with excelent stuff.


After that together we fo to our apartment building. My room is comfortable and spacious, even better than my dorm room in Indonesia. It has a big closet that I believe five people can go inside, a mini refrigerator, air conditioner, a bed, and table plus chair for study. The toilet inside the room is clean and we can adjust the shower wether we want hot or cold water. In the afternoon Ben take us to meet the other student who already arrived before us to meet at a dimsum restaurant.


My order is just classic dimsum. I dont know what exactly the ingredient but my Taiwan friends assure me it does not contain pork. Don’t expect me to understand the name or the ingredient because I am not familiar with Chinese language >_< It tasted good though..


After eating dimsum and get to know each other, Ben help us to shop for our daily needs. I do bought a lot stuff also toilet stuff like shampoo, soap, tooth paste, tissue, etc because if I buy in Indonesia it will take room in my suitcase and make it heavier. Furthermore I do want to try Taiwan stuff, if I calculate it the price is not that much different and I do have sharp eyes on looking for discount stuff ^_^


So this is my toilet stuff for the next 30 days in Taiwan. Can’t wait for the first day in class tomorrow... 


See you on next post.. XOXO..

Weekend Travel around NTU Campus

Today is a holiday. I explore place around the dorm in holiday. I like the architecture here. And I found a tiny area for children to play. The children can play happily here. In Taipei, most of the citizen living in apartment, they don't have their own garden. This public space for children is very useful. This is very nice. The child plays happily Even though I do a solo travelling but I feel safe because the neighbourhood is not crowded. My destination is Taipei Grand Mosque. I search on google map it is not far from the dorm. So I go there and planning to pray there. Taipei Grand Mosque It is not as big as I imagine considering Indonesia grand mosque is so big with 10 floor. The mosque only has 2 floors but it is clean and comfortable. I pretty impress because there are a lot of people in the mosque. Apparently, there is someone die. In Muslim rules if there is someone die then at least 40 people should pray for the corpse and wishing he has a pleasant

Shung Ye Museum and Taiwan's National Palace Museum

Back to my story while I was in Taiwan joining BACT NTU. That day July 14th 2018 we went to National Palace Museum, but first we were coming to Shung Ye Museum of Formosan Aborigin. It located very near from National Palace Museum, only 5 minute walking. We use city bus to go there. This is my first time using bus in Taiwan. I like to ride the bus. It is clean and comfortable, I sit with Sarah and she said she also like to use public transportation.  Inside Shung Ye Museum of Formosan Aborigin We have guided tour here. The tour guide is very good on explaining the content of the museum. First she take us to look around in th first floor. The first floor is about people and natural environment of Taiwan. An introduction to environment inhabited by Taiwan indigenous people is displayed. The interpretation of the aborigin people is displayed in an informative board. There is a Yami (Tao) fishing boat representing the maritime environment. The most interesting part in the firs
