Here are some pictures of the apartment. It's a 3 bedroom in a great location; very close to the school, the gym, the grocery store, and nightlife. It's a gated community and our security guard is quite the character. He speaks English and French and has so far proposed marriage to both Steph and I. His name is Five and he prefers we call him Five Pepe, which means Uncle Five.

I'm currently experiencing my first typhoon. It's rain like you've never seen in Canada. If you stood in it for 5 seconds every inch of you would be soaked right through. That's where the giant head-to-toe raincoats come in handy for driving. They're pretty sexy. The driving is a little frightening in the heavy rain, especially when you get pulled over the by the one and only english speaking police officer in Kaohsiung in some RIDE-like program. Good thing I know how to look confused and speak French:)

I hope all is well at home! Keep in touch.
