Hello, everyone.
It's been a long time after I finished last post.
In order to prepare for the university entrance exam, I stopped writing the blog for a few months.
The exam was held on January 22nd and 23rd, and it was ended now.
Therefore, I decided to continue my blog writing.
During the period I stopped the project, I decided to change the direction of Corner.
The past five posts introduced some special things in Taiwan; however, I thought it was too widely and not specialization.
You can also search it on the Internet, and the information may be more precision than my blog shows.
As a consequence, I considered that maybe I can show some other things which people can hard search it on the Internet.
First of all, I want to tell you something about the village I lived.
Because most of the things will happen in this place.
======================================================
I lived in a small village called Shen-gou ( 深溝 ) , it located in Yilan county.
Shen-gou is not a prosperous village, and there isn't too many people noticed this place until about 12 years before.
A young man came to this village in order to started his new career, farming.
Farming is not looking upon as an ideal job in Taiwan; most of the parents here are not inspiring their children to work as a farmer.
However, this man came to Shen-gou after finished his master's degree in Japan.
He is my dad.
Everyone thought he was crazy; in their opinion, no one would work as a farmer when he/she just got the master's degree.
Nevertheless, he just followed what he want, and came to Shen-gou, the hometown of his wife.
Sticking to his insistence, he grow rice without pesticide.
With few people believe in him, he still stuck to it.
(Maybe I can share our story to you in the future.)
Many years later, more and more young people came to Shen-gou, Yilan in order to farming and something else.
They are not mainstream; however, they believe in what they want,and carry out it.
Consequently, Shen-gou turned into a uncommon place.
There are many different things happening, and my purpose is delivering the news in Shen-gou to all of you throughout the world.
Hope you will enjoy the changing I made!
Greetings from Shen-gou.
