I have arrived in Taiwan safe and sound.  I found an apartment that is owned by a lady who has 2 daughters at the school.  It is new and I’ll be the first person to live in it.  On the bottom 2 floors will be her tea and flower show, and above me are 2 other floors that will have other people living there.  One will be another teacher at my school and the other will be his friend who will be teaching at a different school.  There is also one more apartment that is for rent but it is small and I didn’t want to live there.

The school is nice.  I am not sure if it is bigger than I expected or smaller, but it is a good size I think.  I saw the Library and there is a lot to do.  There are boxes of books that need to be cataloged and processed.  Over 30 boxes of withdrawn and discarded books donated by another international school plus over 30 new books that were purchased by the school from Scholastic over the last few years.

I can tell it is going to take a long time, but hopefully I’ll be able to get it in shape soon.
