After taking 3 planes to get here, I have finally arrived safe and sound. We left Arkansas at 10:25am and arrived in Taipei at 9:30pm the next day. We saw a lot of daylight and finally began to see night time when we arrived in Tokyo. We were the last group to arrive and ended up getting here late at night. It was amazing to see how busy the city was surrounding the airport. The traffic was crazy! I was surprised that no one had wrecks there. The airport was about an hour away from Taipei. Once we arrived at the hotel, we were greeted by other Foreign English Teachers and some members of the Ministry of Education. They were very nice and helpful. This week, we have been going through orientation to get used to the language and culture. We are learning about our teaching expectations, the counties that we will teach, and the students that we will have the honor of educating. This experience should be very life changing! I can't wait to see my school and meet some of the other teachers.
