So this is it. It's been two and a half years of selling the house, sorting through all our possessions, planning, packing, and travel. We've been to Taiwan, half a world away, five times, flown on 51 airplanes, visited nearly a dozen countries, and lived for three summers feeling a bit homeless. I have fallen in love with Taiwan and am sorry to be gone. I've missed the U.S. and am excited to be back.
There have been experiences that made living so far from home difficult, especially my biking accident and Dad's death, but I have grown stronger from those experiences. Living overseas has been magical. Hard, yes. Frustrating at times. But truly a gift as well. Lee and I have grown closer as a couple. We've been challenged by work, by the culture shock, by language barriers, and we've overcome them all. We left Kaohsiung still in love with the place.
But this chapter is over. Who knows, though. I may start this story back up when we travel again. It may be a vacation trip or it could be we pack up once again and head to somewhere new. We'll see.
I have very much enjoyed this voyage. Thanks so much for all the pictures and words. I do hope to see you both in person sometime!
