♥♥♥ LOVE TAIWAN ♥♥♥

Hey Sweethearts! ♥

I am just gonna make a short entry today ~ as you might know, I am travelling in Taiwan atm - so I kinda lack time for nicely decorated and long blogposts, haha. =P (I also have to handle this Notebook with Chinese / English keyboard, which is a pain in the *** for me, lol)

I do update my Instagram very frequently though, so please feel free to follow me! =) (I do post about pretty much anything - Gyaru finds, food porn, lifestyle... just come to check it out! ;D)

Soooo what happened the past days? ♥

Took the airplane from Munich to Beijing, then transferred from Beijing to Taipeh...

(Munich airport)

The 1st flight was delayed already... so in the very end, after lots of trouble, we had a total delay of 6 HOURS!!

To break it down to the point: Only travelling to our destination in Taiwan took us more then 36 hours. ~..~

Don´t need to mention we felt DEAD after that. ~lol

We`re staying in beautiful Tainan City now...

(View at Tainan City center district, Hospital of Tainan)

...were we raided the department stores and arcade on the 1st day already!

Crazy experience of that day:

In one of the narrow streets, there was a shop that displayed loads of cute underwear on the streets. When I wanted to take a closer look at it, a sexy nurse (wtf!) was shooting out of the store... apparently it was a sexshop! lol 

Anyways, I was still interested in their undies... but no way I could fit my western boobies into them! x___X After a bit of discussion, we were both unsure which size to choose... so the shop staff offered me to find the right size for me by touching my BOOBIES. O___O (She`s got the magic hands, wohoo)

To cut the story short - in the end I did not buy anything, but I think I made a very special friend.

Btw. today she was wearing a sexy Sailor costume. Might go back to get one of those. lol

So Tainan City has lots and lots of awesome little stores in its narrow streets, its amazing! I could spend couple of days just wandering around, I am really in love! ♥

I found Liz Lisa, Yumetenbo and lots of yesstyle brands at unbelievable cheap prices, I will definately load my suitcase with them! Theres also Daiso here, where you can find loads of japanese brand lashes and cosmetics! And they have Puri machines OMG! Heaven! :´D

(Gets of day 1)

The next day, my BF went to pick up his scooter - very useful in this city!

(Looking flashy in my scooter gear, lol - NOT. Terribly suffering from jetlag. X___x)

We went visiting Tainans biggest Temple...

(It was so windy that day! A Taifun was hitting Taiwan that day, scary! x__X)

...and I was praying in a special ceremony to the god of marriage, to receive this lucky charm:

(Theres a red string inside, that is meant to tie the couple together for all time... if you know the japanese story of "akai ito", you might know what I am talking about! ;D)

Food here is AMAZING! Everything simply tastes wonderful, even the dishes that are seemingly disgusting. lol (Tried blood pudding, stinky Tofu, pig head skin and all that stuff... everything tasted fairly okay, cannot complain! lol)

(Fried dumplings ~ kinda like japanese Gyoza! So super tasty and cheeeeap!)

I also found a couple of Gyaru stores at the department store!

(One Way)

I wouldn´t believe my eyes when my BF found Lip Service!

(Dunno if you can see it in the far back, but the shop staff was 100% Onee Gyaru ~ INSTANT LOVE ♥ But I was too shy to ask for a photo with her, looking absolutely WASTED myself. I kinda got sick yesterday, so that's a bummer. =/)

Me, carefully observing the shop staff from afar... lol

(Even the filter can´t rescue my shitty look, lol. Sorry!)

To end this post with some nice photos... some little Gyaru finds!

(Ank Rouge Mook)

(Alba Rosa Mook)

So well, thats just a little bit of the photos that you can find on my instagram - so as I said, feel free to visit my account there! ;D

I also probably won´t to another blogpost like this anymore, since its really time consuming. So if you wanna stay updated about my travel to far south Taiwan AND of course JAPAN, you`d better check my instagram. ;D

Enough of the advertise, I am usually not such a person. lol

If you want me to review / take photos of something in particular, just let me know! I`ll do my best to give you a good impression of Taiwan and Japan alltogether! ;D

Have a good time sweethearts!

It's such a sweet, sweet life, isn't it?

Crossing borders

 Hey sweethearts, how are you doing so far?! =D

I'm very sorry for my absence, but there were lots of important things going on in my life recently! I had to sacrifice blogging therefore, I'm very sorry. =/

So, what happened?

Got my nurse degree!

I had to go through my final exams in nursery the past couple of weeks - the tests were really difficult this year! x___X (I saw the exam documents of the last years - they were such an easy bite compared to this year! So unfair! xD")

Some of the topics were Anorexia, M. Parkinson, Alcoholism... ugh, I had a really hard time remembering all the details of those! But somehow I managed, haha. I passed with excellent degrees, YAHOOOOOOOO! ♥

That's the end of my study nurse period... nothing can stop me now, I can even go to work abroad - so happy! ♥

Quit my 2nd Job!

I also quit my 2nd Job in the outpatient care service - it was very time consuming and gave me a lot of pressure (especially when the exams were coming up...)... but it was also a very important experience in my life. I don't regret taking the job at all! I got a lot more self-confidence because of it, and I also learned to work very independently. 

Anyways, in the future I'm earning enough with my full-time job only, so no need to do the extra shifts.^.^

Celebrated my weight loss!

My weight loss started exactly 1 year ago, during my summer vacation - I just couldn't stand my look anymore, so I started dieting and exercising after I saw a thinspiration gallery online. It all started very suddenly, but cost me a lot of time in the end, haha - but well, slow weight loss is the healthy weight loss, right? ;D

During the past 1 year, I dropped:16kg

-11cm breast measurement
-14cm waist measurement
-14cm hip measurement
-10cm thight measurement

At this moment, I feel very comfy with my body. I'm not stick thin, I still have some curves left here and there - but I can comfortably fit a EU 34 / XS size without squeezing anything. =)
I'm very proud of myself, I didn't think I would ever make it this far - and I'm still motivated to keep going, haha! ;D

  

MOST IMPORTANT

Oh well, there was a reason I took the 2nd Job... you might remember! ;D

I was saving up for a big 1-month-trip to Taiwan & Japan... which I'm starting TOMORROW, haha!
So that's one more thing that kept me busy recently! ;D

Tomorrow's gonna be really exhausting, awaiting a nearly 24-hours travel to our appartement in the south of Taiwan... thanks god my boyfriend is with me! He's gonna be the perfect guide during the trip, beeing a native taiwanese. ♥

I can't wait for him to guide me around!
He promised me to take me to the beach at a national park, I can't wait ♥
Germany is freezing cold already, so I absolutely can't wait to throw on my bathing suit once more! :´D It's like time travelling back into summer! :´D

After exploring Taiwan, we're gonna go to Japan for a couple of days - I'M SO EXCITED THERES NO WORD FOR IT! ♥

Even though I'm a bit afraid of taking the railway in Tokyo... Suica system is confusing me, lol. I guess I have to find out when we're over there, haha. =)

I'm gonna blow my money in 109, get a nice set of hair extensions, take tons of purikura, raid donki... and most importantly: Go to Disneyland to see their Halloween setup 2013! Can't wait! >////<

Sounds like I'll just drag my BF along, haha. xD" 

No worries, I'll make sure he will have a blast, too. ;D (*secret*)

I don't think I'll have a lot of spare time for blogging, so I might only write every once a while... but I'll do photo updates frequently! I also created an instagram account for live updates, please follow me if you're interested! =)

My Instagram account

Well, that's it for now - I'll go back packing my suitcase then. x___X

Have a great time beauties!

It's such a sweet, sweet life, isn't it?
