Some of you are still dropping by and emailing me about our show. Very nice of you. Thank you!

Good Taste

That Japanese guy in the background is selling organic food produce and yet he dresses so smartly and tastefully. It's such a visual treat living in a cool city like Tokyo. And especially in a neighborhood like Jiyugaoka, which feels like a Japanese version of London's Notting Hill.

好推荐

最近电台UFM100.3有个新的节目叫 "低空飞行", 我很喜欢。有知识感性的谈话，还有很多很好听的歌，很适合简单就是美的观众。如果周末星期六中午12点至下午2点你在家，不妨听一听DJ赵婉仪自然`舒服`丰富的聊天和播歌方式。

Love of A Family...

In ep 5, we featured this very likeable family who runs a restaurant called 乌树林in 台北桃园。Sammi, the daughter and also leader of the business, is such a dedicated and serious character and her folks charming in their affable and generous ways. 钟妈妈 made us the most delicious 过桥板面that was voted no.1 on our most likeable meals countdown, while 钟爸爸 insisted on buying us dinner at his favorite Hakka restaurant. We were totally blissed out.

大自然好去处

如果你喜欢大自然，来临的学校假期，不妨考虑去O'Reily's. 我们在简单的第一辑就介绍过。O'Reily's的节目表很适合一家大小同行。http://www.oreillys.com.au/

Talk About Cool...

Peifen can look pretty cool given her laidback and unassuming demeanour.

Different Cities, Similar Qualities

The sales person who works in Taipei Eslite Bookstore (right picture) seems to remind me of this other girl, Miyuki (left picture) who stays in Brown's Field in Japan. They're both young and share a certain cultured and charming disposition.

Uber Cool

Folks from episode 6 (Tokyo) - I thought their dress sense was so refreshing and their wardrobe so well put-together. Really inspirational.

Non-stop Blabbering

Some of you wonder how come I got so much about our show to blabber on even though it has long ago ended its run. Well, I took a lot of pictures during the course of production.

Acting Required

The filming crew is usually kind enough to make life easier for our subjects. In this case, we were shooting a midshot of Peifen (meaning from waist up), so she only had to pretend to be dragging the luggage. In reality, Peifen had to struggle with the weight of the bag during most of the off camera moments. But being her good-natured self, she never once complained. A hearty meal, comfortable sleep and a good laugh was all she needed to keep her in good spirit.

A Typical Scene

To fill you in on a typical shooting set, here's a picture of what the rest of us normally do when the camera is rolling. We would, by instinct, always stay out of the way of the lens. Sometimes even cramping into a small corner if we are indoors. If the space gets too impossibly small, we totally eject ourselves from the set.
