Meaning, smart people pay no attention to rumours and most importantly, don’t pass them on.

Penghu


This past weekend, I flew to Penghu, an archipelago off the southwest coast of Taiwan, almost parallel with Kaoshiung. Apart from the relatively new airport, a McDonald’s and a few scattered 7-11’s, Penghu could be Taiwan 50 years ago. Low walls made of coral line the quiet and nearly empty roads. The crowds, traffic, noise and pollution one normally finds in Taipei are nonexistent here.

I also rode a scooter for the first time in Taiwan on the island of Chimei. !!
