I haven't finished recounting my journey in Sweden and Japan; I returned from Taiwan just two weeks ago. Here's a brief account of my recent visit there (although I still have unfinished tale from last year trip to Taiwan). My first stop was Kaoshiung. Spent a day and a half in the town, then I travelled to Tainan for a weekend symposium. I ended my journey in Taipei for another short hike. The weather in Kaohsiung was quite hot, comparatively. It's not my favorite weather for traveling. Perhaps I arrived there too early; had I come a few days later, the temperature would have been cooler. Since day time was hot, it would be wise to visit Pier 2 area during evening or night. Not many people / tourists in this town. It looked quiet. The next day, I took a ferry to Cijin. The ride was short, about 5 minutes. Cijin Island is a fisherman's village. On the opposite side of the island, there's a beach. It was serene but scorching, to the extent that I couldn't walk m
What would you associate Sweden with? Ikea? That's right. That's what you will see inside the Sweden Pavilion. Some of the Ikea stuffs are on display. After all, that's Swedish biggest success apart from Sony Ericsson.
In one of the halls, there's big portrait display, kinda 3 dimensional portrait with the theme of environmental awareness. If you view from the right side, it tells you the impact of the environment pollution. If you view it from the left side, you'll have a sunny day. The difference is just a few steps of your action.
