A reply from my host!

Today I got a reply from my host family.
 It was a short note to welcome me and a very brief introduction. Now I know that I am going to be hosted by Frank and Grace, which are a couple!

I'll write to them tonight to tell them more about myself and my life. I hope we can know about eathother before we meet.

I just read that we should bring along a formal dress for the time we will meet the president. I have no idea what I am going to wear, peobably a dress or a formal skirt and blouse...lets see what I can find!

I have lived in a tropical land before and I know it is very humid and hot. I guess I will need quite different clothes from teh ones I wear here in Finland!

I am thinking of a small gift for my host...probably some chocolate from the Finnish Fazer company and something Iranian, to represent both of them.

Huh, I have a lot to do before this amazing trip...I am so excited!

The most special trip ever!

Traveling is absoloutely one of my favourites and I have been to some European countries, south east Asia and Middle east. I am going to have the most special trip in my life so far…I still can’t believe it’s real! Let me tell you about that : I have been selected for SAY TAIWAN program which is meant to let us experience the authentic culture and lifestyle of the Taiwanese! The Taiwan government has now given me and 249 others from various countries the opportunity to stay in Taiwan for 2 weeks and to live with locals. I am so excited about this because I have always wanted to visit Taiwan and besides, I am going to meet people from all around the world in this program. This is a dream come true! I am sure my experience of this country will be a wonderful one and I will be writing all about my trip here in this blog!

Visa : Done!

I applied for the visa to Taiwan and it took two working days. Today I got the visa stamped in my passport. They gave me 60 days starting from July the 4th, that feels more comfortable in case of any delays and stuff for the plane. The very first step accomplished! The next step is the ticket...Waiting for Alice's email!!

Update on me

It's been a long time since I last wrote in here. I am not working on my second master's degree's thesis. I am not sure if writing in this blog regularly makes any sense as it was first created for my Taiwan trip. I have another blog which I update at times, I'd be happy to be followed by my SayTaiwan friends. I write my opinions and thoughts on many issues in that weblog. Click  Here  to see my other blog. Thanks in advance!
