I hooked up with my friend- we”ll call him Sly- a long time Taiwan foriegner and cassanova of sorts for this interview.What he says may shock you.
All names have been changed to protect all parties involved.
Ran: So Sly, how did you you start “MILF hunting”?
Sly: Actually, we found each other, not really hunting. I mostly [...]

I realize there have been many disturbing videos posted here of vehicle accidents from the highways and streets of Taiwan. It’s not like Taiwan is the only country that has these sort of accidents. I do believe that they have more though because the rules of the road just don’t apply in Taiwan. [...]

Deep within the lush alphabet forest in Taiwan lie a Wizard. This is his tale!

The older generation were fixated on the idea of learning conversation.
“Have you done your homework?” I asked.
“Yesterday, my work very busy - go to see client,” replied my student.
“Yesterday, you were very busy because you went to see a client, yes? Past tense of go is went, past tense of is…” hold on he didn’t [...]

I remember, before coming to Taiwan, I wasn’t attracted to asian women AT ALL. Vancouver has one of the most concentrated Asian population in North America, too.
After already being together with my (whitey) girlfriend for a year, the idea of Taiwan came up and made the move in 2001. She was blond with blue eyes, [...]

I’m not converting to lesbianism by any means, but I suppose I’ve abandoned the idea that I will meet anyone worthwhile [...]

After Taiwan’s Opposition, the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), has won the legislative by-elections, underground radio stations triumphantly broadcast the news of victory. The radio presenters didn’t forget to remind their audience: “Taiwan has succeeded! We have taught the Kuomintang government a lesson! But after having taught a lesson, let’s not forget our health – dear [...]

Do you make jokes while teaching that make you laugh but go over the kids heads? I do and I’ll share them with you.

I got a cool mount that allows me to attach my camera on my scooter. Unfortunately the scooter is a little too bumpy to get great footage on, but I was still able to get a couple observations about Taiwan driving on tape.

Today January 9th, 2010 I arrived at the Brickyard in Kaoshiung for another great event call Black Reign, and the place was soo packed up with people. When I 1st arrive they had started early with many people dancing everywhere. The music was booming and the event got soo wild when they changed the music [...]

I helped out the Brickyard bar in Kaohsiung Taiwan on their La Noche Latina Event with some Photography. The Day of the event they had 2 hours of the Latino Salsa Dancing Class for everyone before the Latino Band arrived. I enjoyed the lessons they offered for everyone, which was awesome for everyone in [...]

How do I find a Taiwanese Aborigine? - A search for someone who belongs to that 2% of the population Taiwan talks and writes quite a lot about.
Multiethnic Taiwan? That slogan seems to be rather odd for Westerners like me who from kindergarten on are used to socializing with immigrants from all over the globe. [...]
