Being Taught While Being a Teacher
To be honest : taking part in the Toucheng Leisure Farm's Summer Camps 2012 was the first time in my entire life to spend whole days with kids younger than 13 years old.
After all, I'm really grateful for that opportunity!

The Turtle Island
Last Sunday I and Christina used the opportunity (and tickets) given to us by
Tina - the farm's manager and our 'host mum' : we took a cruise around the Turtle Island.

Trip to the Farm's Winery
Hi guys
Today we were so lucky to get picked up by Grandpa here at the farm. We were on the way back from working with the kids to have lunch. He waved us into his car and asked us to join him.

Hi guys!
I want to tell you about our trip to Hualien. Hualien is located below Yilan and we took the train for 2 and a half hours. We arrived at Guangfu, which is a small town in Hualien. It is a little bit confusing because there is "the county/district" Hualien but there is also a town called Hualien. The same goes for Yilan, which is both the county or district but also a town in the district. Well we were going Hualien to attend a trainee conference hosted by AIESEC Taiwan. The purpose of this conference was to prepare us for our time here in Taiwan and also give us inspiration for traveling in Taiwan.

Lectures at nearby school
Hi everyone!
We would like to tell you guys about our experience of giving a "lecture" about our homecountries to the kids at a nearby school! Sometimes it is easy to forget all the amazing things about your own country especially when you are out and about experiencing totally different culture. So it was actually a lot of fun even just creating the presentation. Also trying to figure out what kind of information the kids would like to know. It turned out to be really difficult to anticipate what they wanted to know, but more on that later ;)
First up was Poland:

Hellooo to Taiwan
Hi everyone!
I am Christina from Denmark and I have finally arrived at the Toucheng Farm. I know that Kasia mentioned here on the blog that I was arriving the 6th of July and now it is already the 10th of July! So I want to update you on my first days here. SO many things have already happened.

Luodong Night Market
Explore Asia without going to any Night Market? It's almost a sin.
Visit at this place should be the first position on everyone's 'To Do' list
while staying in any Asian country.

Summer Camps at the Farm
Summer Camps Season has already begun at the Toucheng Leisure Farm!
I spent 2 first weeks of my internship watching the farm's staff preparing the camps,
but I didn't expect such an amazing effect!
