making PAPERS

Seriously... is this the second day only? IT might be the third. Time is like nothing here. It takes about an hour to get anywhere even though Taiwan is like only a fraction of Cali, and even smaller than LA!!! woah... wait, maybe I should confirm that online.
is that NOT CRAZY?! Well to me it is. 
After traveling to so many cities of Italy alone it baffles me as to how I will do it in Taiwan. I definitely am going to give it a try after my internship is done. The transportation is a bit confusing from what I remember, but it is all about learning how to get around!!! Plus, I knew no Italian in Italy and here at least I know a frugal amount of Chinese, but I know some, none the less 


I came to a lot of these places when I was touring with AID Program, but like I expected, things are different. We went to the paper factory where we made fans last time and this time I was about 100 times more appreciative and enthusiastic about paper making. It is amazing that the Chinese invented this contraption and indispensable creation!
I am going to create a paper factory in the US and we are going to revive the appreciation for hand made paper and the amazing feeling you get when you can create and know the process of creating something from beginning to end. Ingenuity is hard to find today and thats what I want to bring back in what I do.
