First winter in Taiwan

They were from Malaysia or Hong Kong, but they spoke good Chinese with no noticeable accent. Whe..

Yoga again in Taipei, Taiwan
Since I started to practice yoga agin, I have found my inner peace. I've already found a suitable place to practice yoga. Unfortunately, it isn't lacal to me. So today I went to another center, which is near my dorm. It was a small group class. I liked this aspect of it. I enjoyed it too. But I thought the focus of the class wasn't suitable for people who have weak shoulders, because I had to us..
