Three years have flown past…

Yes, I’m still around if you’re wondering. I try to keep things up to date in terms of information on the site, although I’m no longer write restaurant reviews here, they go on Google maps these days. That said, I’ve updated the reviews I have written here with current information, as at least a few of the places I’ve reviewed here are still around. I might add more reviews in the future, who knows…

It would seem that the site is as popular as ever, which is quite surprising to me, as I don’t really update it very often. It would seem the content is useful to those of you that are planning to, or recently have moved to Taiwan though and I have no plans on getting rid of any of the content.

Until next time…

And I’m back…

Well, things didn’t work as planned and I’m back in Taiwan since a couple of months ago. It’s good to be back and things are looking up in terms of work for a change.

I guess it’s time to update things here a bit, but I’m quite swamped with work at the moment. The site has been moved to a new host, so let’s hope there are no hiccups with that. Until next time, whenever that may be…

And another year and change has gone by…

Time flies, that’s for sure. It’s been over 8.5 years since I arrived in Taiwan and it’s gotten to that point where it’s time to move on. I’ve had a good time in Taiwan and I’ll miss the little green island, but most of all I’ll miss all the friends I’ve made here. It’s never easy to move on, but hopefully things will work out at the other end, only time will tell.

I won’t be removing anything from the blog with regards to Taiwan, but I’ll most likely move it to a more Taiwan specific category, since I no longer will be living here. So long and thanks for all the squid Taiwan.

It’s been a while…

Oh, right, I have a blog…

It’s been a while since I’ve posted something here, although today I’ve updated the supermarket page, which seem to driving a fair amount of traffic to this here blog on a daily basis.

Although things didn’t work out as planned, for the last year (next week anyhow) I’ve been busy working at my current company and I’m really enjoying what I’m doing there. It’s very different from what I’ve done before, but it’s been a good challenge and I learn new things on almost a daily basis which is the type of job I enjoy doing.

As for this blog, it’s not going anywhere, but I don’t have much time to spend on it either, but I’ll try to at least keep the supermarket list up to date. I’ve also added a new entry, a local deli that sells some rather unique products for Taiwan.

Until next time…

On a roll… with the blog at least

So, two posts in one day, that’s a new record and this’ll be the third. I have a ton of stuff I ought to add on here, but I just haven’t gotten around to doing it for one reason or another. As far as my little side project, not much has happened due to various reasons outside of our control, but the matter of fact is that we had to start over from scratch and we’re now working with a different company. That said, things are somewhat better now, but still far from ideal so we’ll see how things progress.

Otherwise little else is new as I’m still doing the same old job, but I’m getting to the point where I’m close to be willing to do anything but what I’ve been doing for the past five years. The industry isn’t what it used to be and no-one seems to care about quality content any more, which is quite disappointing, but we got all the tech blogs to thank for that…
