At work and at play


During the week, Sepal travels up to Tianmu, Taipei, Taiwan, to teach English. When he doesn't have to teach, Tianmu has some very nice parks he likes to frequent.
The park Sepal went to today is near a Sogo. If you look closely, you can see the Sogo behind the fountain.







The other fountain in the park. Sepal was afraid he might fall into this one.

traveling again! This time as a foreign student....

BACK TO SCHOOL!!!! In Taiwan at JinWen University.

No fear: the Traveling Sepal Mug STILL exists and is still seeing new sights! Above he is posing with a student at JinWen University, a college in Xindian, Taipei, Taiwan. This university rarely sees foreign students, so I think the mug made a hit...
Traveling to JinWen University on the bus.
Some of the campus:

Some of the people:
Now don't be fooled. These two, though they completely look Taiwanese, are NOT foreign exchange students at JinWen. They just come to the university every Tuesday to hang out with college students and help them practice their English. The leave all the studying to Sepal!

More of the campus and people:
On the basketball courts of JinWen.
Also on the basketball courts of JinWen, this time with bags instead of peopel.

Sepal was relieved she didn't like Taiwanese food that much...
