I can't believe how many people there are in this Formosa study tour program. What surprises me more is that nearly everyone is from California, and either go to UC Davis, Irvine, or Berkeley, with an occasional UCLA here and there. I walk around thinking, "Am I really the only one from the East coast?" So far I haven't found another person from the East coast, let alone from New York.
Even though the residence area for the program is located in Taipei, we're in a pretty run-down neighborhood compared to the inner sanctums of Taiwan's capital. Well, I know Taipei pretty well now, since I've visited the city on numerous occasions. Hopefully there will be time when I can head out and roam freely for a bit.
On other notes, I realized the drinking age in Taiwan is 18. Does that surprise me? Not really, actually. I think Chinese people are really lenient on alcohol consumption. Lenient as in unrestrictive, not as in "lenient amounts." Of course, that doesn't mean I'll charge out and drown myself in liquor...
As always, things will be updated as they come along. If they're interesting, that is.
