QingJing Farm - 清境農場
Last week I went to the Qing Jing Farm, situated at the Renai
Township of Nantou County.
With an elevation of 1700-2100 meters, Qingjing is situated in the
temperate zone with an average temperature of 16 degrees.
Qingjing is the best alpine tourist spot in Taiwan and a favorite resort in summer. It is characterized by its tranquil atmosphere and pleasant weather, and long been reputed as “The fair land amid the mist”.
It is also the only farm in Taiwan with an alpine pasture ecosystem with vast greenlands. There, you can somehow feel the atmosphere of a Swiss meadow and from time to time, sheep and cattle are seen grazing on the vast pastures.

This week I spent a lot of time with my family. Saturday night I went with my host sisters and my bf to a Jazz bar : Hotel One Lounge Bar.
I also had dinner with my host parents at the Taichung Golf Club.

Registering at Feng Chia University...
Today I went to register at my new university: Feng Chia University - 逢甲大學!
I am going to take some Chinese classes there, besides the Bachelor of International Business Administration program.
The language program at their Chinese Language Center provides students the opportunity to experience education from within the classrooms as well as living the culture, due to your daily exposure to Mandarin and Taiwanese.
The full
study program consists of 9 levels and each level lasts for approximately 3
months. The class period is divided in 4 quarters : spring, summer, autumn and winter.
Students are required to take 15 hours per week of chinese classes, 15 hours are to be made up of a combination of the required course for that level (10 hours/week) and elective courses.
The required courses places emphasis on the four language skills: listening, speaking, reading and writing.
