It's our final day at Taiwan! All of us can't bear to part with this lovely country. Despite it being the last day, we still had one more last place to visit -- the 921 Earthquake museum. After that, we headed to Taoyuan airport where we did our last secret mission. The Matt Harding dance video. It wasn't as fantastic as what we thought it would be as many people stared at us as though we were lunatics at the airport. Although embarrassed, we persevered till the end and thickskinly danced so as to complete the final mission. In conclusion, this trip to Tainan has indeed been a memorable one as we were exposed to a whole new culture, environment and type of people. As hosts, Taiwanese deserve A plus plus! They are incredibly generous and treat us with sincerity. During a meal, they would order a lot more than what we can eat so that they wouldn't 'lose face'. According to the tour guide, Taiwanese will not only make sure that you are full, they would make sure that you are bloated! (不只吃到饱，而且还要还要吃到撑!!) During outings, Taiwanese will foot the bill for almost everything possible. That made us really uncomfortable as they were treating us far too well!😓 They took our visit very seriously and did everything they could to make us feel at home. Our buddies even had to undergo interviews just to become our buddies. I love Taiwan very much because of their free and carefree lifestyle, picturesque sceneries, as well as their generous and sincere people. It had been a wonderful trip!

We had fun. Sure we did :)
Special thanks goes out to the principal of Sacred Hearts High School and the 5 student leaders who were so hospitable and always tried to meet our needs during our stay :)
