Taipei 4: indifference


We had free elections,… we elected a free parliament, we have a free press, we have a democratic government. Yet…[t]here still exist and work the powerful structures of the former regime…Many places are governed by the same people as before. They are connected to managers of industrial enterprises. There exist immense bureaucratic colossuses that preclude rational economic behavior of individual enterprises and firms. The old bureaucracy persists in all levels.

(Václav Havel, former President of the Czech Republic. Quoted in David, ‘Lustration Laws in Action’, 394.)

Taipei 3: In addition to the price...



bridge is the thing that will scare all the people who are not originally from Taipei. Why? Because there are too many bridges! You as a driver have to decide which way to go instantly. Otherwise, you will dive into the place which is far away from your previous destination and thus have to spend more time and fuel to get to the right direction. lol

Malmö 2: I've got a hole on my retina



This picture may demonstrate why I didn't get a hole given the fact that I did use computer a lot.

London 2: the best day, so far, ever in my life


As a tennis fan, one of the greatest things in life is to watch top players playing in Grand Slam. (Well, Andy Murray is not my favorite lol)

Malmö 1: healing sphere


Every time I looked up at this natural dome in Malmö, I always felt better and felt as if all the stressful as well as unpleasant memories were simply gone...

Nan'ao(南澳) 1: electric melody




The sky in Nan'ou is painted with the staves made of overhead power lines. The melody is a pastoral, which demonstrates the harmony between men and nature, and that between different ethnic groups.

London 1: the enclave of anti-Stuttgart 21



This was the enclave of anti-Stuttgart 21 I found near Marble Arch Station.

I made pilgrimage to Banksy's masterpiece that satirized the CCTV. It should have been located somewhere near Marble Arch. I couldn't find it. But I accidentally entered the territory of  anti-Stuttgart 21 enclave.


I really miss Stuttgart, where I met so many incredibly nice and smart people. Hope everything is going well!
