Lilies

I’ve said this before, but I feel so lucky that I get a second chance at living and appreciating Taiwan. 

I didn’t really discover Taiwan’s natural beauty until I was about to graduate from high school, and I’ve always regretted not seeing more of the island. It’s amazing to do so now. 

Looking down over Taimali, on the east coast of Taiwan.

Last weekend, we decided to drive out to Taimali (about 4 hours away) to see the famous lily-covered hills. Some of our friends think we’re crazy for driving so far for a day trip, but Paul and I both love long drives and spontaneous adventures. 

It was totally worth it. Check it out:

Throwback

After talking about it for (literally) a decade, we finally bought ourselves a record player.

I love it.

I love the challenge of hunting down stores that sell vinyl in the city. I love that it’ll take us a while to build a collection. I love listening to WHOLE ALBUMS again (after years of listening to Spotify playlists and not knowing the names of bands and songs I like). And of course, I LOVE how vinyl sounds.
