This week, we attended mandatory lectures about learning Chinese, recycling in Taiwan, etc. There was a lot of free time, so I spent most of it eating and walking around Taipei. We had really good iced drip coffee at a cafe near NTU (they give student discounts!) with scones, vegan bowl lunch set at Flourish (now one of my favorite places to eat), and a lot of bread. Whenever Kristina and I see a bakery, we will walk in and end up buying a bread or two..or three. I was exhausted from going out everyday the week before, so a lot of time was also spent staying in and just eating fruit (mangoes, dragonfruit, golden kiwis!) or Family Mart sweet potatoes and tea eggs. I’m amazed at how many food options there are in Taipei even if I don’t eat meat.
Classes start Tuesday because of tomorrow’s Dragon Boat Festival. Sorta nervous!
