Cycling in Taiwan I determined to cycle around Taiwan about two months ago. The total distance of this schedule was 1000 kilometers. And I though it could be finished in ten days. I started to search this information online,and discussing the schedule with my friends who had bicycled around Taiwan. I didn't have any bicycle, so I had to rent it. Before this traveling, I practiced the long distance cycling for twice. In the first practice, I bicycled from the bicycle rental to my house. In the second practice, I rode to a mountain and the total distance was 50 kilometers. I started off on May 27, and finished it on June 5. The weather between May and June were pretty hot, and it was sometimes about 36 degrees Centigrade at noon. I lived in the hostel in every city I stayed. I met many people in this traveling. People were always curious and enthusiastic about my cycling course. Some people say cycling around Taiwan is one of top things to do if you are a Taiwanese. I'm perfectly agree this contention. The scenes I saw and people I met make this traveling wonderful. How about cycling around Taiwan again? No doubt!!

Eat sushi I will have a backpack travel to Tokyo in September. Today I started to find any delicious sushi restaurant in Tokyo, so I can visit it. After I read several articles and saw the photographs of sushi. I decided to take a dinner at a sushi restaurant which is nearby my house. This sushi restaurant is a chain restaurant, and every disk has the same price about 1 USD. And that's why I like to visit it. I like sushi definitely, but visiting during the weekdays is never happened before. I am looking forward to the trip. Hope it comes soon.
