It’s a restaurant in Taiwan (more than 10 branches) with a modern-décor.
Actually, the team is toilet. The wall is decorated with a faucet and a shower, tub as the table,
toilet chairs, urinals for the drinks, and commode shape serving pieces.

We Don't Say Goodbye!


It’s been two years when I entered National Taiwan Normal University for my graduate studies, Master of Education, major in International Workforce Education and Development (International Human Resources and Development).
Time, indeed, flies so fast… all of a sudden my foreign classmates will go back to their own countries. We had good times and bad times of course! The best part is not only we learned together but we got the chance to be close to one another. We hang out a lot! Got the chance to visit their countries… shared culture and learned their language…
Here are some photos taken during our pictorial, graduation dinner, and commencement!

Some people come into our lives and quickly go,
Some stay a while, leave footprints in our hearts!

Can miles truly separate us from being friends?
If we want truly to be with someone we love.
Aren't we already there?
Yes, it is right there in our hearts!

Many thanks to all the greetings!

After lunch, we cross along the museum (free admission) called “The Red Playhouse” or “Red Theater” (紅樓劇院). It was built in 1908. It’s known to be as the “market octagon” The first floor now was converted into a small café and shops with some revitalized relics of the island. The second floor is use for monthly exhibit. We didn’t explore much in detail.

We continue our trip to another historical place called "The Lin Family Masion and Garden". According to its history, the forefather of the Lin Family (3 generation) came to Taiwan in 1887 from China. He was a merchant and accumulated some wealth and bought some land. The Lin Family became the wealthiest family at that time.
