Taiwan New Year ....

Finally I am in Taiwan for the Chinese New Year Holidays.

When I arrived there last Sunday 18th of February, I was quite happy with the weather: 20 to 25°C and not humid.
Just fine for me to wear Tee Shirt and France summer clothes.

But even if this weather may look like a good spring in France or North of Italy, in Taiwan it is a kind of winter.
Then everybody kept asking me: "are you cold..?".
And frankly I was not cold.....

But all Taiwanese I met probably were thinking that i will just get what i deserve.....
And I got it ...... a fucking Taiwanese flue with feaver .....


Something I did not get in Europe for more than 10 years.

And during 2 days it destroyed me.

Actually it is strange but really the Taiwanese flue is different than Europe both by symptoms and results point of view.

Now I feel better but tomorrow evening I have to take plane to go back Europe.
Maybe someone will catch me in airport due to chicken flue symptoms....
.... but if so, I will explain that I got this flue the second day of the year.


Then it must be a pig flue.....


For the one who do not know, this new year is "l'annee du cochon"......
And the more I go to Taiwan, the more i look like a pig, then everything is clear now.
