I stayed in Kaohsiung, and did not travel too far this week! However, I sure got a lot of steps in walking around Sun Yat-sen and Cijin Island last weekend.
In terms of miles, I have lost track, but my feet can definitely feel the burn from how much I have been traveling. Traveling through three countries, and more than seven counties in the past few months alone, my daily step count has nearly doubled since coming to Taiwan, and I had the blisters in August to prove it– It probably did not help that I was breaking in a new pair of sneakers in during the hottest and most humid month of the year here. Suffice to say that lessons were learned!
To get to school and my weekly night language classes, I took the bus and MRT. Heading to the island, I was able to ride the waves with the Cijin Ferry. To end the week, I rode on the back of my friend’s scooter to grab some dinner and feel the wind in my hair… and face, ears and watering eyes.
