Foreign Friends


We met a few really nice Taiwanese and Japanese animal friends during our production. Tell you how nice they were : the white and overweight-looking one (left), together with another white ragdoll, visited us every night in Brown's Field and actually slept beside one of our team members, Diana, who was feeling a bit unwell then. I would wake up in the night and see them each lying comfortably at her feet, as if they were guarding her. The gray and white handsome one (btw, I'm bad at telling cat breeds so I use colors and patterns to describe them) belongs to Kitta, the nice Japanese lady who designs clothes using natural plant dyes. The white dog (again, don't know what breed) lives in the tea plantation with its owner in Taipei. It was very friendly and acted like a host and would walk ahead of us as if leading the way. The kitten on the extreme bottom right with very intricate patterns I didn't get to meet, but I like its sad looking glassy eyes. Its owner are the skateboard artists.

A Very Nice Man

I saw a Taiwanese show on tv this evening and it was interviewing this patissier whom we also featured in episodes 4 and 8. Zhang is a kind and affable person whose passion and dreams are very inspiring. He shares a lot about his work here: http://happy3piggie.spaces.live.com/

个性小地方的快乐早餐

I was recently introduced to this song "Beautiful" by a DJ friend whose taste in music I like. I decided to put together some photos (things that make me smile) so I can share the song with everyone here.

Lost For Words


What would you do sitting there? I'd imagine not talking, just gazing, eating a hearty breakfast, drinking coffee or tea with milk, or reading a book about traveling. Something that makes me daydream.

Interesting Discovery


"One of the best ways to spend a Saturday afternoon in London is to crowd into bookstore/café Books for Cooks, a Notting Hill institution where you can browse thousands of international cookbooks and grab one of a handful of café tables to sample daily changing light meals cooked up in the open test kitchen in the back. French owner Eric Treuille runs this irresistable oasis for the cookbook lovers with his English wife Rosie Kindersley." http://www.thekitchn.com/

Impressive Sales Person



我们在台北敦南诚品书店拍摄的时候遇见这一位不但长得漂亮而且态度非常好`工作很尽的售货员。她可以滔滔不绝`一字不漏的推销产品`清楚解说用法,同时语气温和`不忘笑容。过后看见她下班,还注意到她穿着很有个性`有品味。可惜节目缩短,播出后只看到她的手。其实台北有蛮多像她这样很难得的年轻人,至少在工作上,是认真对待的。是社会风气,还是文化熏陶?我想这类的年轻人,在我们这里,是可遇不可求的。
