The upside is great restaurants, groceries and butchers but some seem to forget they're not in Hong Kong anymore. I've seen footprints on the work toilets, spitting isn't so popular here but I totally understand the loudness and the barging! Although I do fancy taking up Tai chi, looks very relaxing.Bainohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14156193098088048637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6575603049321348898.post-66131687759147735292009-04-19T16:33:00.000-04:002009-04-19T16:33:00.000-04:00The burbing and the squatter I still can't get use...The burbing and the squatter I still can't get used to. Gotta pick your location and do the biz strategically.<br /><br />Holler about when you're going to Taiwan and what you're looking to see. It's getting into May now and the south may be warm enough for beach weather. There are some lovely spots to visit and 3,000 meter mountains are literally right by the beach, making it possible to trek one day and sit on the beach with a cold beer by night time.TCLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00545798771125392092noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6575603049321348898.post-53593445210968689612009-04-19T08:20:00.000-04:002009-04-19T08:20:00.000-04:00Spitting is really a bad habit, I can't understand...Spitting is really a bad habit, I can't understand why they have to do this?iWalkhttp://www.iwalku2.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6575603049321348898.post-77628546424250084082009-04-18T13:10:00.000-04:002009-04-18T13:10:00.000-04:00You are only seeing the tip of the ice berg.

As you say, they're just expected to fossilize, either in their own home or in some lifeless oldies' home. Doing tai chi every day and keeping fit sounds great.<br /><br />How the hell do people with dodgy knees use those squat toilets? And the woman shamelessly picking her nose is priceless. I can't believe that's totally normal.nickhttp://nickhereandnow.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
