***Someone or some team(s) did not do their homework. Taiwan is not a province of China — different country, different culture completely: lifestyle, values, attitude, manners, world-view, etc, etc.***

We're traveling together so a little about each of us. On the left is Boots, who is holding a bicycle handle bar and not a selfie-stick - very important fact. On the Right is Lil, an English teacher and grad student. Yes, we are wearing Bernie Sanders shirts, canvassing locally. (2019 edit: Liz!!!)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There is no better way to explore a new place than through the eyes of someone who knows it well. We're ready to cross paths with fascinating new people and make new friends!
