Went indoor wallclimbing last night at the YMCA-managed Shipai gym and it was so much fun. We usually go wallclimbing at Y17, somewhere near Ren-Ai Road, but decided to try this one out instead “for a change.” Shipai is a bit far from downtown Taipei, hence there were less people.

I’m so glad that we went to Green Island a week ago. It gave me the break I desperately needed. After the pressures of life, my work and my organization, it felt great just to get away from it all! Here’s a rare picture of me asleep: The blue sky, the shining sun and the […]
