台北遊: 淡水篇 DANSHUI ONCE MORE

I've been to Taipei twice before, both times during summer.  Both times, I was in Danshui but lasted no more than two hours each time because of the unbearable heat.  Today, I returned to Danshui for the third time to enjoy it to the fullest.  It had been raining the day before and the weather was great for walking, though it would've been even better if the sun wasn't hiding behind the clouds all the time. 

There are times that I do enjoy travelling alone, at snail pace and really taking in the sights. 













I think old streets and old buildings are extremely charming.

I love the history that accompanies every Old Street

The story behind every building

Where the old embraces the new



Time for lunch :)

Leave behind the hustle and bustle of the Old Street and you'll discover Danshui's quiet and laid back side.

下半场 | 英雄回归

昨天逛书局时, 竟发现久违的英雄牌钢笔。你是否也用过?反正这就是我中学时期的回忆。赶紧买了一支。当然,墨水是必需的。 人生下的半场 做个简单的人  少于人纠缠 多看大自然  在路上见世界 在途中寻自己  知山高水阔 故云淡风轻  名山海可平 故风雨兼程  以如常为安 以如愿为喜 ...
